Solid companies in the EU that hire entry level product managers from an MBA? I have a finance background in a tech start up, and I’m polishing my Python and SQL skills.

Why do you want to transition to PM?
Actually, in product, you’ll play less of a role in building, but more in 1) discovering the right problem to work on. 2) being the voice of a customer in a room full of engineers 3) Roadmapping and prioritising the right features etc. It also involves setting broader product strategy and having a vision, and influencing your team to follow through your vision - that’s where soft skills come in. It’s a tough transition from Consulting to PM, especially if you’ve spent quite a few years in Consulting. I’ve done this move at Amazon.
