Dear Fishes,
Hope you're all keeping well.

I wanted to know and understand what do program managers at Microsoft / Amazon / Google "actually" do. How much is it different from what one does in a project manager role in IT consulting.

Thanks.

Depends upon the Department you are. Program Managers in Amazon are end to end owners of the Projects in that department. Ensuring smooth transition, expansion or launch.

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.

Hi fishes. I need one advice.

I was offered a role at a firm, but they put in on hold with no info on the date. There was no joining letter given, just verbal confirmation.
In the mean time, i got another offer and they wanted immediate joining. The HR was not willing to negotiate the date at all, so i onboarded. It has been 2 weeks.
The 1st firm has now confirmed the role & it's much better pay and role wise.
Is leaving it justified with what good reason can be given to move ?

🙏
