Our VP of Product recently transitioned to the role of VP of Product Marketing. For some additional context, they’ve previously worked closely with my boss, the Director of Product Marketing, at an earlier company. They’ve also announced the addition of three new roles to our Product Marketing team: a Competitive PMM, a Product Analyst, and a Community Manager. Given this transition and the new hires, do you have any advice on how to navigate this change?

Would be great to get more context to be able to help. What are you concerned about?

Are you looking to move higher up or recognizing that you might be hitting a role ceiling here as long as they are there?

What startup stage is your company in right now?

I think it’s a great opportunity for you to get some mentorship or direct report opportunities. Speak up about it if you’re looking for that experience

+1 - need more context please

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)
