I’m interviewing for a Manager role at PayPal in the product management department and wondering how much of a salary I should ask. I am a woman and POC so I don’t want to fall into the trap of asking for/getting paid less than I’m worth. All insights welcome!!

Just a shot on the dark and pending where you live (aka ex if U live in Boston it’s 30% more expensive then rural NJ make sure you account that into your decision) product management is $$$$ not sure you’re seniority but I would say 120-140, more senior W years of experience I would said 160-180

Thank you for this. I’m a Product Mgr Lead now. Meaning my next career progression is Mgr which is why I applied for the Mgr of PM role. I’m assuming if I get it I won’t start at the top of the salary bracket which is fine.

I saw a great tip a couple of weeks ago: when asked for your desired range, ask them what they have budgeted for the role and decided whether or not that’s fits your range.

Yes! I actually did this with the recruiter and he told me it’s a ‘T27 posting’. I just don’t have the internal docs to understand what that implies.
