I would say the non-programming part, the theoretical investigation is really easy. Plus the majority of data science do data cleaning 80% of their time.

If you're a programmer by formation, then indeed you will be given a programming intensive, theoretically non-intensive task (or be found to be qualified for such a job). If you are more theoretically inclined, unsurprisingly, you end up with a more theoretically heavy job.
