Why?

Wondering if you feel stuck in your path. Is there something particular you'd like to further specialize in? Education is great but it's got to be strategically motivated. Otherwise it's better to be spending your time developing something else, career-wise.

This feels like it's a move to break things up and create some change. But you mention that you have 12 years of experience as the first thing, so that might be needed.

Given the Supreme Court is expected to ban affirmative action in June 2023, am I correct in thinking that it would be more advantageous for me, an Indian-American male, to apply in fall 2023 vs fall 2022?

Hi all,

#kpmg#India

In the portal, I can see that I am tagged to a project and the Start Date is 10/Jan/23.

But the status is "Proposed" not "Staffed"
What does that signify?

Moreover, the Project Code starts with "temp"
For eg
Temp-ProjectCode

This is weird as well.

Can anyone suggest what does this means?
Whom should I reach out to, for more info?

Any inputs will be helpful.

Thanks!

I just got an offer for a PM role at eBay. I don’t have an Eng background and I’ve never had a PM title within tech, although my previous roles involved a lot of PM-type work. So effectively this would be me “breaking into” product management and finally having the title. I think this could open a lot of doors but I’m very hesitant about eBay. It’s obviously not a “hot” company right now and I’m not sure how respected it would be for getting other PM jobs in the future. Should I make the jump?
