I work for a family-owned business, and we don't get cost of living increases. It's frustrating because I feel I am falling behind financially more and more each year.

I worked for one of those. They acted like they were giving you the world when they gave us a 3% raise

Do you get a merit increase?

One 3.5% raise over 2+ years

Mine does not but they are considering giving everyone a raise next year that would catch us all up wth inflation. It's sad that they have to "consider" it, but here we are.

What is the rationale behind it? I'm interested to know why companies do not want their employees for have a sufficient quality of life.

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?

Hi everyone! In your experience, what is the one tool / must-have / methodology any of your companies use to bring about a cohesive and comprehensive go-to-market strategy in the launch of new products and services? As a company scales, coordinating cross-functionally and across time zones is becoming increasingly challenging so we have identified that we need frameworks or tools to help us go-to-market in a less clumsy, more coordinated fashion. Would love to get your ideas on this.
