Never too late - I know people who have left as APs to do senior product manager roles . You are likely to have more luck with amazon versus others in big tech or get a better designation in a startup. You can also join product strategy in a high growth company and move to the PM org as a people leader in a year or two

So I wanted to share my experience and see if it helps anyone else out there. I was not an alcoholic, but I was definitely alcohol abusive. I would go out and drink and then be completely blacked out and not remember anything. I would also do and say stupid things that just made no sense and I even got in trouble with the law a few times.

One day, my friend and I after a few day bender decided to take some LSD because we were hung over and just wanted to not drink and chill. (Cont.)
