May I ask where you choose to go out of these schools and how you decided?

Dropping out of a Statistics PhD
statsphd2020 replied to statsphd2020's topic in Mathematics and Statistics
I'm in a program right now. While I am enjoying the coursework, I have come to the conclusion that writing a dissertation would not be my cup of tea given the research I have worked on so far. I have interned in the tech space and I am pretty confident they would give me a full time offer were I to ask. I am just a little worried about how it looks internally and in terms of letter of recommendations. -
What are the pros or cons of dropping out of a Statistics PhD (possibly with or without a masters) to go to the private sector? How many people do it at a top 10 program? Is it looked down upon?
