The BS they tell about Data Science…

1. In what world does a Director of DS only make $200k, and the VP of Anything only make $210k???

2. In what world does the compensation increase become smaller, the higher the promotion?

3. They present it as if this is completely achievable just by “following the path”, while in reality it takes a lot of luck and politics to become anything higher than a DS manager, and it happens very rarely.
