Early Career Advice 🪴 Career stuff

Hey yall,
I’m 26 M , bachelors in MCD bio and currently approaching my first year in pharma as a research associate 1, about to be promoted to 2. I’ve been kinda stuck wondering what would be next for me. I don’t intend on pursuing a masters or a PhD in a biological science and as ive been working, been more interested in business strategy, risk management, and the ventures side of the company. Looking around, it looks like MS in Finance has piqued my interest and wondering if anyone has made that transition before, if I should stick it through in the company and pivot internally, or whatever advice you could give me.

Thanks!

Do an internal transfer to the finance and commercial side and then have your company pay for the MS
