How old is too old to get into strategy consulting? I have an MD and and MBA. I've been working at Booz for the past 4 years on a very large scale healthcare technology implementation program, but I'm now looking for a change. I'm really not interested in federal/project management consulting. Just want to know if the MBB type companies would consider someone at nearly 37 who would be just stepping into that field.

Do any of the MBB firms have Salesforce practices/groups?

A colleague told me today that Google separates Product Manager and Product Owner as two separate roles. I believe that one PM role is preferred in the industry and most modern software companies, especially FAANG companies, only have PMs. Just curious what others have experienced and if I'm correct in my assumption.

Just started a PM job and 7 weeks into the role my manager is surprised I had not designed a roadmap. Is this bad?

A question for VCs: I’m currently a VC analyst. I want to eventually come back to the VC industry and perhaps become a partner (if possible). However, there’s an opportunity to work at an Endowment Fund (Harvard/Yale/Stanford level). Would you recommend me to spend the next 3-4 years doing something that’s not directly VC related? Would it be hard for me to come back to the VC industry with this experience? Why or why not? Thank you so much for your time and help!
