Wanted to highlight Prudential Financial’s hiring practices. They rescinded my offer once I attempted to negotiate the salary. The official reason given was that I didn’t “sound excited enough”.
They then admittedly gave the offer to someone who was less qualified. There were other red flags throughout the job offer process that the HR team should overall be ashamed of.

Naw. Two weeks is way to soon to make that type of decision. Give the job a shot and explore the company. You can always find something internal. You did the hard part by getting in, why throw it away.
2 weeks? What don’t you like about it? Not sure how things work at Google but I’d imagine you’re still training. I’d give it more time unless the other role is completely different from this one and you for sure know you want to do that other role. Life’s too short to be unhappy everyday.
Ah, sorry you did say that. I’d just wait it out and see if you could move to a product manager role with Google. Depending on how open your manager/supervisor is. I had a great supervisor where I was able to be open about things like that.
Working at one of the premier tech firms in the world vs a telco? No comparison - stay at Google. Hiring managers there will always hire from within if they can, so stick it out and look to transfer 1 year into the job if you still don't like it. In the meantime, use your inside access to learn as much about Google products and the roles you are interested in to make yourself a better candidate for a future job.
That’s a lot of stock grants you’re giving up.
What does this kind of role do exactly?
Community Builder
Account management for 2 large accounts - data analytics, research, and project management work.
The product strategy role is product analytics, presentation building, dashboard building
Mentor
Stick it out for 6 months. You’re just ramping up. Give it time.
A few wks is not too short to know something is wrong for you (I knew inside of 3 that my last job was the wrong decision) but it MAY too soon to attempt to jump ships depending on your fuller picture (including COVID).
You can:
1 - hang out for a yr or so. Find some adjacent thing that you'll pick up and round yourself out and look around both internally and externally. Not sure about your flow but maybe you'll be able to eventually open up about expecting / looking for something else when you took the time and can work to navigate to another internal opportunity.
2 - not sure of your prior employer, but in industry (I'm an exp hire with almost 10 yrs prior) I had a colleague realizing joining us was not the right move. His prior employer had reach out anyway but he was also inside of 2-3 wks when he figured it out. He told me and my PM his thoughts and about being in talks with his prior employer. I took PTO while he was around, the other group improved his compensation and he went back.
Maybe things will change and you'll feel better about the role. Maybe it will suck the whole time (as someone who's endured this, I really hope not).
May be worth understanding what a typical career path looks like at Google for an account manager. See if there's anyone who switched from sales to product and ask them for advice.
