I have Affirm, the company leading the buy now pay later space in the US, reach out to me for a product manager role. Any thoughts on the company? It recently IPO'ed and seems interesting. Based on research, pay would be 40% more, not sure about the reputation though. What do you guys think? Worth pursuing?

Would’ve been great PreIPO...however heard it’s a solid place for WLB, decent comp...but has its politics. Not a bad exit, but not the best post IPO

What specifically about politics? Don't most companies have that, if not all?

Yes

Okay, than you :)

Curious to hear more about your background? Do you have other product experience? If you’re getting reached out to for a PM role at Affirm, you might have a good background for product at other tech companies

I do work in a big4 as a product manager. Been in the role for the last 1.5 years. Before that, I was on consulting projects. No prior experience at tech companies. Over experience 4+ years.

Can someone explain how billable hours work?

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

I interviewed with a top big law firm last week for a Senior Project Manager role. I felt fairly good and confident post the interviews. Sadly I was not given the offer. I remember the Director mentioned that I was over qualified for the position. I’m currently a Consultant… I’m guess I’m not sure how to take the “over qualified” response. Prior to the interviews, I felt I needed more experience …. Lol. Anyone else felt the same?
