I personally vote R + Tidyverse only because I know a ton of older people in data/stats background who have done work in SAS and R, but struggle a bit with knowing what to do in Python. If all you're doing is tabular data all day, R handles that pretty well by default and RStudio is a much better IDE than even a Jupyter notebook for a more interactive paradigm.
