I am interested in switching to Product Management for a tech company but not ready to jump ship yet. Currently I am a Advisory Senior Associate and have the opportunity to take on a Project Manager role at my current tech client. This is not where I want to take my career but I will do it if it may increase my chances of breaking into Product in near future. Would having such on my resume/gaining this experience help? Do recruiters looks for this? Thanks in advance.

What are you 1-2 year non-technical consultants exiting to? I have done mostly org design, change strategy and PMO. I want to exit somewhere I can begin to build a specific brand / skill set, a bump up to the ~150k+ would be nice as well.
Most exits will probably be traditional project manager roles I would imagine?

Hello PM colleagues! I have two equal offers(within my current company) that I am trying to navigate. Option A is as a PM with an established product team, where the work is going to be a little more technical project manager like, but I’ve heard questionable things about leadership. Option B is a PM role for a brand new product team (there’s only two people so far) that is less established, but I’ll have the opportunity to work in early discovery and entrepreneur-like work. Any thoughts?

I currently work as an engineer for the utility industry and have been offered a position as a project manager in healthcare. The base pay is the same as what I’m currently getting. But I’d be losing out on a bonus I’d be getting soon, pension plan, 401k matching and I also would have to pay back money for tuition reimbursement. I’m really tired of my current job but I feel like the offer isn’t good from a financial perspective. Any tips or insight that could help? Should I try negotiating?
