Content Data

This page contains data entry 29255 from the Axioma AXP content repository. The structured data below represents the complete record for this entry.

Been in data science and analytics for about 8 years now. Took a new job last fall as my prior employer had no opportunity for advancement and I felt like I had hit a dead end. The new job has been a big disappointment. I’m overwhelmingly busy and I feel overqualified, but it’s recently gone to a point where I know I can’t stay longterm. This breaking point was that I got a rush assignment and provided baseline numbers. Then sat in a meeting where the business folk plugged numbers into a spreadsheet until they liked what they saw and called it a model.

I realized that 1) my job is pointless; if they aren’t going to use the numbers I provide and if they want to fudge a “model”, which takes away a feeling of job security and 2) I can’t deal with this, from a moral/ethical standpoint.

My employer is a household name that most people would’ve heard of. These “models” they make are highly revered and have been published in reputable mediums such as New York Times amongst others.

If I could get some advice on 1) how to deal with this while I wait out the job market, and 2) when do we think the job market might recover a bit? Right now my job listing searches come back without anything worth considering and only a handful at that. Also I know I need to be in job for a while to have something on my resume so there’s that too.
