Should I accept job offer or do my master's? [D](reddit.com)

I graduated with my bachelor's in a top 3 CS program and have had a rough recruiting season. I received a full time offer as AI Product Engineer at a tax software company, where they are trying to become more AI native. It's essentially a PM + AI engineering role. Long term I'd love to work at a frontier lab or in a research/more technical role at an AI startup. So, should I take up the offer or pursue my master's at the same school? I am able to defer my master's but don't feel fully comfortable accepting the offer just to only work there for 6 months... At the same time it's not fully aligned with where I want to be long term and feel I can do better, but recruiting was also really difficult. Note, I'm not able to pursue my Master's while working, the company was firm on this TC 126k submitted by /u/jollyjove [link] [Kommentare]
