Sorry folks, pmo... exit opportunities from a pmo leadership role are massive. Aws is a very limited niche

All depends on what OP wants / is interested in. PMO isn’t the most exciting work and isn’t revenue generating and you have to deal with direct reports. Product management on the other hand is a lot more engaging, you’re building the product that is generating revenue for the firm and you get to solve complex problems and work with a wide range of people and teams

Is this really a question???

For me, it’ll be AWS.

Thanks for the responses the way I am trying to look at it Is what will help me for the next job? I think the pmo role with direct reports helps me transition into a director role and I am unsure of the path of product manager role considering its more of a lead by influence role no direct reports but I agree the work is more interesting.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company.

General corporate in NY looking to lateral into tech transactions at one of the EC/VC firms. I’ve heard that I may get a class cut if I make the move but I’m ok with that. My worry is that EC/VC firms are crazy busy work differently from general corp, I also won’t have control over my hours, and potentially worse based on how billing differs (block billing on a few clients vs having to work with 15 or more startups). Is the same true for tech trans or IP group?

But I found one thing unusual that I did not have any salary negotiation call neither any hr round.

They released offer letter directly on ibegin portal with 60% hike on my current ctc .

Should I consider this as a fake recruitement.

Please let me know your thoughts.
