Lit associate in NYC. Rising second year, not loving lit but I genuinely hate my firm. Is anyone hiring (any practice area, really)? I would like to make the move before the end of the year, willing to change practice areas. Even willing to move to other cities.

I recently had an interview with a very promising pre-IPO company in the AI/ML space for a SE leadership position. The interview feedback was better than I expected, but with a twist. They have already given the offer to someone else, but they still want to bring me on board and they asked me what I would like to do. I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?

Is this normal?
