Is anyone familiar with the Deloitte Product Manager role? I’m ex-Deloitte with digital experience and still in consulting, but wondering if coming back would be a good way to get direct PM experience.

I was looking into the job but the pay was pretty average for the industry so there wasn't too much of an incentive to move to Deloitte. I did like what I saw of their collaborative approach. I think it would be a good opportunity to gain experience that has value. I would consider it.

If you want to do real PMing, consulting is not the way. The amount of BS you have to wade through to make a decision is counter to all PMing good practices. It’s why I left Deloitte myself.

I think it's also important to consider whether you're planning to continue consulting or not. Employers know the process is different for a consultant, so if you aren't planning to consult forever, making the switch could help strengthen your resume in terms of PM experience.

It’s not a real PM job and pay is low. I recommend passing on it.

Hmm, maybe a good call. Whats considered “low” ?

If you'd like to work as a PM and are able to make the switch back, that seems like a great and appropriate step into it. How long has it been since you were there?
