Formal training, never more than a day. But for some jobs they just taught me stuff as we go along over the first couple weeks. 3 days definitely seems off for someone with your experience though

I have seen training that’s 2 weeks long for the most part, but it’s merely very based on knowing menus and allergens in dishes sold. However, I have also seen servers train for 3 days and be ready to go. It’s all about how ready you feel.

In Adobe it is a pure solution architect role whereas in the other company the role is more like a technical architect, the CTC being offered is nearly same. I would give preference to Adobe but I am concerned about my career progression when and if I have to leave Adobe in future.

I have 3+ YOE, CCTC 3.5Lpa
Ed- B.Com Hons
I am interested in being a Data Engineer or Scientist.
DE aligns most with my learning patterns and I dont think I will require a further degree for that.

However, for DS jobs I feel recruiters ask for relevant DS/ML experience and/or a degree in stats/maths to reflect that the person is aware in theory/practical at least.

I feel getting a DS job will be slow and time taking for me.
Please suggest/advice. Want to discuss this.

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.
