My coach is an idiot, hasn't read my feedback, didn't know which accounts I've worked on and yet was able to say that applying for a promotion was a big stretch. Got stellar feeback from everyone. FML

That sucks. My coach is an idiot too. I don't expect anything. The model of being both a project manager and a counselor is really quite strange. Because of this model the counsellors all out their own stuff ahead of yours and could care less what happens to you.

This is why the best promotion is leaving for a competitor lol

What’s a fair expectation for my first raise? Publicly traded co with ~2500 employees. I’ve been doing litigation with the company for almost 3 yrs and have only had a 2% cost of living raise so far. Graduated in 2014. Base comp is $127.5k in the Philly area. I see salaries all over the place in this site and it’s hard to tell whether mine is competitive.

Is it common to offer signing bonuses for product managers? I've only worked in small companies and I'm currently interviewing at a much larger company. I am expecting an offer this week, but the salary isn't quite where I want it to be. A signing bonus of 5 or 10k would make me feel so much better (obviously) but it would put me right where I want to be for salary this year. I'm taking a cut in salary to consider this new job but I like the company and they actually offer benefits
