Feel like I missed the boat years back to get into Director of Product role. Back in the day there was only Senior in between a Director role, now there’s Lead and Group levels, so much hierarchy now.

Are you part of Digital BCG?

I can understand SPM -> GPM -> Director but what’s Lead doing there? Seems like too much tbh

For sure! My understanding of PM levels is mostly from the image below.

My confusion came from the Lead level: at my startup, we’ve got SPM -> Lead, and leads report to the CPO. I hear that Stripe follows something similar as well, abstracting all the higher PM levels to just Lead. To me it seems like having too many people manager levels would slow things down, but I’ve only worked at startups so my perspective is definitely limited.

Anyone else feel discourage ? I thought my interview went amazing and today I received the standard email rejection. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen those emails but this one hurt more than the others. I sat in my car and just cried. Hiding from my family, so they wouldn’t feel bad with me. Picked myself up, gave a few encouraging words to myself in the mirror and put my fake face on for my family. Can anyone else relate ?
