I'm a rising senior looking for new-grad roles. I'm looking to go into PM long term. My current internship has an APM role that for many teams is more of a PO role, but still has the PM title and product-facing opportunities.

I also have the chance to go into MBB as a consultant. While the APM role is obviously more relevant, I'm concerned that the tech reputation and bad Product culture will make it not worth it to turn down MBB.

You’re in a good spot, one in which both paths can lead you to where you want to be

Sorry what do you mean by bad product culture? at MBB? And do you really like your internship, do you feel like the place allows you to thrive and that you have strong relationships with people there? Do you have the urge to leave?

Agree with A1 that you can't really lose! Because of that, i think you should go with where you feel guided internally, or where you think you can grow and honestly enjoy yourself more.

Life is too short to take a job you don't like, when you have these kinds of opportunities in front of you. Take the job you think you will enjoy/find satisfaction in more - both paths can lead to success

At your stage, the emphasis should probably be on what makes you look best and keeps pushing you forward. That said, your happiness is (obviously!) important. Don't take a role you'll end up being miserable in.

Also, I did work a job up until early 2017, but don't have any records on it besides pay slips (not of every year) and T4. And I worked a job from 2018-2020 that wasn't included on my resume. Should that be listed on my background check?

I have a Masters in Computer Engineering from one of the top 3 Canadian Engineering schools and 2.5 years of software internship experience. Unsure of the level right now, will be talking to the recruiter soon, but sounds like an L60 lowball. What do you think the compensation band should be for me?
