How do you get into Product? I want to be a product analyst but I can’t find anyone that’s looking for an entry level PA. I have 1.5 YOE as a strategic planner and 5 months as a BA, even have a CSM.

I know the framework, but every place seems to want you to have the experience but don’t want it to be on their dime. Are there better companies or industries to get started?

Do you think getting SQL/Python experience is worth the extra time for financial analyst roles coming from Big 4 tax consulting? I would love to hear any advice for shifting towards the financial modeling path from accounting. Thanks!

I started conversations with a small boutique studio about doing Facebook ads for them and they asked what my retainer fee would be to manage them.

I’m certified through meta’s platform too if that matters.

Good Evening My Fellow Christian Educators! I realize it is going to be challenging for me this year...with so many of my students performing below grade level expectations in ELA and MATH and also ensuring that all students follow the COVID Guidelines in the classroom. I still feel hopeful that God will bless me with the knowledge on how to effectively impact each one of those kids. Let's remember to keep all educators lifted in prayer this year.
Have a wonderful school year!!
God Bless All❤️

Hey Amazonians,

I am L4 Team manager in SDS CS, could some one help me with the expected package after me promoting to L5 GRPM?
Rn my CTC base is around 8.5lpa

Thank you in advance! @

Is your compensation and performance reviewed automatically on a regular/annual basis? I don’t get either of these unless I ask for it! Found out others in our company experienced the same as me. Lowball Salaries trending as a common pain point

I like my team and work life balance, during the pandemic was very beneficial to my wellbeing. However feel I owe it to myself now, to be earning what I’m worth in the market (I’m underpaid by a fair bit) especially with inflation costs

How long can you go without having anything to do before you get laid off?

What’s a fair salary increase after a year of inflation?

Is it normal for senior managers to ask you to cancel leaves or to nit apply leaves in EY GDS? My manager told in all hands meeting yesterday to not apply leaves during tear end. Won’t this become a hr issue?

No one answers anything in the bowl lol. this would be a good interview topic for Fishbowls PM roles. How would you drive engagement in the PM bowl? 😂

Thanks for creating this Bowl. Anyone here transitioned from cost engineering into PM? I’m working a internal consulting type of cost engineer role and is seems like a good position to gain skills in that could apply to becoming a PM in the future. I have also worked in design engineering and engineering analysis roles. Have a BS in mechanical engineering and a MS in Data Analytics Engineering.

Hey all,
Im looking to pivot my career from industrial design to product design or product management.
At the moment i manage a team of 5 industrial designers for b2b sustainable fashion and retail interiors. The methodologies and processes are quite similar between physical and digital design so i feel i should not start from a junior position, however my portfolio contains only physical. Did anybody else make a similar career switch? Any advice for switching to product is welcome. Thanks!

I am considering pivoting to product management. My background is in engineering and I manage engineering teams. Would I be able to clear 150k?

Trying to decide it I want to stay in consulting or move to PM. I have an opportunity to jump ship but I am not sure. Any suggestions?

I'm going to have a final interview with the Director of Product in a startup for an Associate Product Manager role, what do you guys think are the questions that they will be asking me?

Thanks in advance!

Best ways to improve leadership skills? Trying to build up the skill set for a PM role and I have next to no manager/leadership experience. What are the do's and don'ts of leading a product team, (or any team) and the traits you'd most want to see or have as a leader?

Do all PM interviews have case study and strategy questions? Have you had an interview where you weren’t presented with them? I have two panel interviews with the same company coming up and was just curious!

Any insights to the PwC product manager interview. All tips welcomed.

UK Only please.

Digital Consultant to Tech Company (e.g. FAANG PM, Palantir Deployment, Databricks Solution Architect). What would you use to determine your total comp package?

At the moment, I just take the average TC i'd expect over the next 3 years at my consulting firm (EM levels)

Hello,
Any advice for someone who wants to break into product management?
Context, i have 10+ years in advertising experience, and founded a startup in 2020 (with a Sr Developer as cofounder) but had to drop the startup for personal reasons (moving to another country) and i really liked building a product and getting technical.
So any advice would help.

Are there any courses you’d recommend that look good on a PM resume?
