Can any 🐠 tell me how product manager or program manager translates to roles in consulting? (ie: product manager = Sr manager)?
I am interviewing with amazon and wanted a better understanding.

Many entry-level product managers at startups are junior folks. Don't equate molded career levels at somewhere like Accenture with a real role and autonomy outside of a professional services firm.

You could be a measly Analyst at Accenture and be a great Product Manager at a startup. And likewise, a top performing SM at Accenture but a shit PM in the real-world.

Product manager is a role that can have any level of seniority. If you are the product manager for MS Office at Microsoft you are reporting to Nadella. If you are the product manager for google bookmarks at google you are rather junior.

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!
