Anyone hiring 2YOE for $160k+ tech skills?
Left consulting in 2019, raised a fund, and acquired a healthcare SaaS business. Looking to bring on a Director of Client Success to lead the function. Role will interface with VPs and CSuite of payers. Lots of opportunity to make consulting level impact in industry. I'm targeting a post-mba consultant but open to other conversations. If interested, send me an email at matt@qcsshealth.com

Better WLB at Amazon.

Strongly disagree. Went from EY to AWS.

Sr. PM L6 is definitely better - program manager can be hit or miss depending on team and scope of role
Coach
Has nothing to do with a specific program or project - they’re both very different roles and have very different career trajectories.
Product managers own a product (or a specific feature set for larger products) and are responsible for the strategy, design, development, launch, and improvement of it. PgMs have a execution lens and are responsible for the delivery of a program/project

Also it's relatively easy to pivot from PgM to PM once you're on a team. The weird thing about amazon is, you can only get promoted a level up on your current team. You can't go and apply for an L7 (principal or Sr Manager level) position in another team. You can see if they'll lower it to L6, do the job for a year or two and get bumped up to L7. So the team you join is pretty important.

I'm not sure, I just joined. I do know for BizOps I will need to pick up SQL to get to L6 for BizOps (I think of the few openings, they all ask for it).
