Fellow Data geeks! I currently work as a Lead Business Intelligence Engineer at Carfax and looking for a change with 8 years of strong experience in data related roles. As my company is going thru an acquisition I’m looking for a change. I’m a perfect match if you are using the tools such as Tableau or MicroStrategy. Also, particularly good at analyzing financial, e-commerce and marketing data. I appreciate the help if anyone could refer me here! Also, FYI, I’m on my H1B visa in the US.

I’ve been a CSR for just over 20 years and with my current employer for 7. I like the company and when I discuss advancement with mgr, they seem very supportive but when it comes to it, something gets in the way and they don’t want to let me go. I’d like to advance to something else, but what?! I’m always the “go-to” person, eager to help, known for going above and beyond, always training the new hires etc… any ideas would be appreciated
