Cheap mindset management cares more about timesheet,wfo,forceful mandatory trainings,imposing strict restrictions on laptop,access to personal docs only via vpn,no employee well being no salary hikes nth at all.90% projects filled with freshers coz they cost less.No WLB for good dedicated hard working employees as they are punished with more and more work, leaves rewards mostly for people who don’t work.But no issues kyunki job security hai 😂

I would say it all depends on the organization. Some of them use these terms interchangeably, and some have both roles. If they have both roles then you might want to check the hierarchy and the career progress options. If PM is the next destination then it’s certainly a demotion, unless this comes with other preferences. I found it not hard to navigate across the lanes when I wanted to switch. So be vigilant about what you are signing up for.
I got rejected from PO role because the PM lead thought It’d be a retrograde for me, but I don’t think it is. Its just a different angle. Many organization don’t have PO they just have PMs.
PO focus mostly on delivery but I don’t believe it should be too problematic to go back to PM afterwards, especially if you already have experience.
My advice would be to clearly understand the role, and responsibilities and evaluate your tradeoffs so it will be easier to make the decision.
Depends on the organization and how they format their PO and PM roles. I would check the structure and see where the roles fall based on your current alignment.
