Are there any marketers here who have done their PMP?

I am looking to do my PMP and possibly move to the Product or Project mgmt side of things.

Would like to know what you've used to show eligibility for PMP. It says you need 36 months of leading projects. Marketing projects most of the time aren't as massive or complex as in other types of functions.

My experience is mainly around digital projects (brand, SEO, paid, strategy, etc). Looking for advice on how to position my experience.

I’ve done PI work my entire career for over 10 years. I’ve worked in state and federal courts and I’ve traveled around the country doing MDL work and bellwether trials. I’ve had a lot of success making the idiots I’ve worked for wealthy, but I’m still waiting for a moment where I enjoy what I’m doing. I feel stuck working in dysfunctional plaintiff firms/cultures. I hate this profession/career more and more each year. Has anybody been successful breaking off on their own in recent years? Advice?

Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
