Starting my career and deciding between two offers. Having explored both full-stack development as well as the AI/ML field, staying close to core tech is vital.
​1. ZS Associates (Data Science Associate): 14 LPA base + 1.4L bonus + allowances.
​2. Infosys (Specialist Programmer): 8.5 LPA base + 1.5L bonus.
​Which offer provides the best learning and resume value? Will taking the Data Science Associate path at ZS make it difficult to shift into pure backend or hardcore ML roles later?

I would choose ZS Associates because the specialist programmer role takes you atleast 3 years to reach 14 lpa fixed.

Also data scientist is a niche skill compared to routine full stack development.
