Anyone here leave a non-tech consulting role to be a product manager? What was that process like? How difficult did you find the interviews? And what is your TC?

Previous technology implementation background earlier in my career

Left strategy, operations, and M&A role

Went through standard hiring process and didn’t find the interviews as difficult as Mckinsey’s process but generally more challenging than big4.

Comp at L6 was approximately 250k averaged over 4 years with vest. At L7 now I’ll make ballpark $350k this year but it’s variable based on share price.

Comp can vary significantly year to year and even drop off based on RSU allocation.

I had been a senior manager

I understood technology, SDLC, testing, etc. I used experience implementing software and blueprinting and target state business process as examples to use the software to develop optimal business processes. I tied back to KPI and the business value drivers and desired state for customers.

I treated off the shelf software configuration and RICE objects as development and feature use cases as well as upgrades and associated integration/regression testing.

How hard is it going to be to for me to find a new job? Should I just stay and try things out? What next?
