Advice for a IM resident: Hospitalist vs Fellowship

Hi everyone, I am a resident in IM.

Really torn between choosing hospitalist (would prefer academic hospitalist) vs fellowship (not really interested in Gi, cards, onc and they are competitive). Was considering endocrine vs pulmonology (not pccm).

Any advice is welcome on what questions I need to ask myself and the scope of hospitalist medicine in the future. What made everyone here choose hospitalist, what are ups and downs now and in the future? Thank you!!
