Hi all, mostly just looking for advice from people who have made the exit. I have 8 years in banking and consumer lending and over 10 years of customer service experience. I am hoping to make the switch to an entry level tech role, and wanted to know what some good options I should be looking at are. Specifically, what companies and job roles should I look at?

Looking to switch careers in several months. Prepping myself for a career pivot from finance to PM.

I'm finishing up a Google Certificate in project management and getting certified as a CSPO (Certified Scrum Product Owner), and pairing them with a couple of personal projects as well as updating my resume and Linkedin to focus my job experiences around PM.

Anyone have any other tips or advice on how to ensure I'm prepping myself effectively to transition into a PM career path? Thanks!

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match.

Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?
