Advice for Data Analyst Career (lemmy.ml)

I’m starting as data analyst (roughly bachelor level). My responsibility will be to analyze time series data and classify agents and write reports. I won’t be responsible for the database management. It’s likely that I have to use R because my colleagues use R. I guess I may use python if it’s more appropriate.

Which books and other things can you guys recommend? What should I avoid?

If you're doing a lot of reporting I highly recommend getting familiar with Quarto. It's incredibly flexible for writing ad hoc reports, automated reporting, dashboards, presentations, etc. You can use python, R, observable, or Julia.
