Pros

Cons

  • • Very technical role - have to be comfortable with analytics tools, metrics, understanding data trends
  • • Have to constantly deal with changing trends, algorithm changes etc.
  • • Strategy is only one piece of the puzzle, have to rely on others to effectively execute the strategies you put in place
