  1. Why I felt data scientist is not sexy

(1.) Because data analysis is not the prior part of product if your product is not a data product.

(2.) Can data scientist really know the domain knowledge without being an project holder?

(3.) If there is no data engineer, data scientist can’t do anything. Or you can say that if there is no data, data scientist can’t do anything too.

(4.)data team is a support team in a company, you support the operation in a company, but sometimes you are not nessary.

2. data scientist position in most of the company

3. very cruical problem, can data scientist make money for the company directly.

4. talk about data products(the most impactful )

5. pm with data analysis skills or marketing specialist with data analysis skills.

6. engineer vs data analysis vs pm

7. So what to do next?

(1.) you have to know data scientist is the supporter in a company.

(2.) don’t think you can use model to solve all the problems in a company.

(3.) If you also want to stay in the data analysis position. You can’t only use data analysis skills to do a great job, you have to learn data engineering skills as well.
