Rank these roles from best paid career path to least paid, assuming joining FAAMG with 10 YOE: A) Product Marketing Manager B) Program Manager C) Sales Strategy & Operations D) Alliance/Partnership Manager E) Professional Services

And how would you rank which has the most flexible exit opps, from most flex to least flex? (E.g, you can go from PMM to Sales S&O or something else, but you would get stuck in Sales S&O.)

Offer as a talent program manager in industry $130k with 20% base. Currently talent consultant at $112k base about 5-10% bonus but up for manager this year. Worth it to stay? Or take the exit and run? T3 Midwest city. New role would have slower progression but better wlb and focus on really cool and specific talent work. Consulting role would be broader and provide the chance to manage a team. Thoughts from the bowl?

I was emailed by a recruiter for a FAANG Sr Program Manager role and she asked me my expectations. I like a noob told her what I wanted 250k+ total comp and she said the best we can do is 160-170k total. This is less than my current base (176k M2 MBA) that is due for an adjustment. I really like the role but cannot take such a major pay cut. How do I proceed further?

What would you guys choose? Program manager L5 at Google (sales ops - incentives, setting targets, etc) or current position at corporate strategy at a legacy tech company (HPE, Cisco, etc.) where there’s a good opportunity to being promoted to engagement manager within the next six months (currently managing a junior member). Salaries are more or less the same (a bit lower at Google due to COL). Goals are to eventually manage a p&l or transition to product management.

I recently accepted a newly created role ( which I love) with a brand. My most recent title was Sr. Project Manager. Though I’m now making more money, my current title is now project manager. The roles and responsibilities; however, are more aligned with a program manager ( think more strategic and global). After looking I noticed there were no Program Manager titles in the entire marketing division. That said, because it’s a new role, do I have the ability to request this change? If so, when?
