How has a DS career met your expectations and how much are you utilizing your skill set?

Thanks! I'm working on the learning new things and building projects. I think that's the route I enjoy most, so now I'm learning Python. I started going through the AWS certifications, but stopped when hours picked up. Definitely need to get more involved in the community and am doing that internally in the company.

I don't have any interaction with my current client, which I think is a huge part to why I don't enjoy it. It's more the solution owners talking with the client and then coming with requests on what to do which required hours of large SQL queries on a terrible client machine that would lock up and freeze. Then I hand off the results to the solution owners and they go back to the client, and then come back with more requests. There was no code tech reviews or quality control due to the quick turn around time and often had to redo some long queries which added to my frustrations.

My last consulting job, I got a lot of face time with the client and was able to design results to their liking. Aka Aaron Burr's "I wanna be in the room where it happens". I should have communicated that, but I had assumed they'd want a data scientist involved in data conversations with the client.
