I've become really jaded about consulting.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?

Hello, I had a technical recruiter from Facebook reach out to me twice for a program management lead opportunity. She feels I have strong experience and am a good fit.

I have about 25 yrs of experience in technology and compliance with about 5 yrs in privacy along with a number of certifications in these areas.

Could you share any information I should be aware of in-terms of levels, compensation, stocks, etc?

Hi community, humbly seeking professional HR advice. I recently joined my company’s HR team. In an informal conversation, a senior HRBP, considered a peer, called 2 of our fellow HR colleagues “worthless.” I should have rebuked her then & there but was so caught off guard. This person is 20 years my senior. In the same conversation this person advocated for me on a separate matter & complimented my performance. I am not sure what course of action to take at this time. Distraught & unsure.
