Hello,
I have salary discussion round with Tiger analytics for data science role, Toronto
I had a few things that I wanted to know before I join:
1) How much compensation should I ask for? Also how does the structure look like for DS roles (base+bonus+equity) . Can I ask for a joining bonus?
2) Is travel a part of data scientist role at TA?
3) also how easy it is to move to analytics consulting role from data scientist within the firm?

This is even better advice for your personal life btw.

“Always over estimate time for deliverables”
One of the best advices
“You’re not saving lives, take it easy”
People that deliver 80% get promoted because people that deliver 120% are too valuable to promote. Not really catchy, but you get the idea
My friend was told that not getting promoted is an opportunity to contribute more at the current level before moving to next level(which people who were promoted won’t get).🫡🤣

Come with proposed solutions to a problem, not just the problem.
Haha true. This was from grad school, so you were going to be the one doing regardless. Just better to show that you put some thought into it and have you an opportunity to create a solution that you at least owned.

Be longterm greedy.
Don't get hung up on what other people might be thinking of you.
They aren't thinking about you at all. They are thinking about themselves.
If you want to be the kind of partner you really could be, stop comparing yourself to the people around you at your level today. Everybody is coming from a different place, has overcome different struggles.

“Keep it simple”
While explaining things to someone or a group, speak as if you’re addressing a young kid who doesn’t know much. If you cannot simplify the problem or the narrative, you don’t understand it yourself.
