Is $180k OTE competitive compensation for a Head of Product Design? Remote role. East Coast US hours. Managing a team (hands on too) so likely not a checkbox 40h work week.

I know this is 2 weeks old but the responsibilities that come with titles can be drastically different from company to company. Let’s also not forget about their culture, work/life balance and benefits.

Will the job be managing a large team or just a handful? Do they have a great work/life balance with awesome benefits? Then 180k is a nice living to make while also being able to LIVE with little stress.

Now if you’re Head of Product and you are working overtime more than you’re not, you’re in over your head with responsibilities for one person and the benefits are just so-so… then I would say 180k isn’t enough.

I was just interviewing for roles in December 2021. Sr/Lead level Product Design positions. The salaries ranged anywhere between 120-200k. I also received 2 offers in a 2 week span and accepted the role that was $10k less than the other because my quality of life was going to be impeccably better than the latter.

Basically this all comes down to what you want out of your next position and what you’re okay with handling in your day to day tasks.

We all know how inflation can derail our Retirement Planning dreams!!Though it's better to start investing as early as possible,but HEY, all is not lost even if you start little late. We all have our family responsibilities when we start our career, so "INVESTING FOR SELF" takes a back seat.
Just a perspective, even if someone at the age of 45 years starts investin for his retirement, he can decently manage the same with discipline and regular investing.
