Hi, I just left as an SBA. Tech is the way to go to maximize pay and WLB. Tech strat, bizops/bizdev, and PM roles (usually only if you have a CS degree already and get a bit lucky). TC can range anywhere from 160k on the low end to almost 300k on the top end if you’re lucky enough. Most non-technical SBAs can likely expect something like 180k (130-140k base, rest is stock and bonuses) in Big Tech, I think (based on my friends’ experiences). Most technical BAs should be able to safely clear 200k TC for semi-technical roles (e.g., PM)

IHello Fishes. I have received positive feedback from KPMG interviews for consultant position and have submitted documents. It has been 4 days since I haven't received any call for negotiation or offer letter. How long does it take to get that?

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.

Hi Fishes,

I have joined one of the top 4 Indian private bank as a Campaign Manager in 2019, after 3 years of campaign management I recently got into a product Manager role to learn PM Skills. However, 1 month into the new role I realised that there's no scope to learn PM Skills other than basic Project management. Request your suggestions & referrals to move into proper Prod Man role. Am open for any course suggestions too🙂

My Skills: Business Analytics, Campaign Analytics, Prod Management

A few months ago I posted my resume here and a couple people said it was too long, 4 pages. I took a step back and was about to change it. Reading it I realized, those four pages truly captured ME and my experience.

Not even 2 weeks after I decided to trust myself, I was offered a Director position in the field I love!

I share that to say, take time to learn yourself. So you know when to take the advice of others or when to TRUST YOU!
