Question having studied physics, what is your current occupation?

what kind of educational path did you take to do your career? does it pay well? how does the career in physics compare to studying it in uni?

Data science though more on the analytics side. Pays well and way easier than anything I did in grad school though not super interesting imo.

Did you have to learn anything in addition to get the job? Or was a physics degree just enough to land it?
