How far in advance did they have deadlines and fires that you couldn't get time off? Seems strange to me, but I guess it really depends on management.

- alephnan 9y agoI worked on the Data Science team. We were headcount strapped. At the same time, we were crucial to the rest of the business operation. At the time, data science positions were hard to fill. At least when you don’t want to fork out exorbitant compensation. On the one hand, we managed our own infrastructure which was unstable at the time. On the other hand, there were a constant stream of business campaigns (every week) which depended on the data science team updating the data warehouse. I got sick my first week, and even then was coerced to come in. That set precedence for me about what the expectations were.
