Sanity check me here, 🐠 - Ideal exit is FAANG, Uber/Lyft, or tech Product Manager. Should I take an Amazon Program Manager offer or keep looking?

How different are these positions? Serious question.

Program Managers are PMO with the lowest pay and progression at FAANG. It seems like I'm doing much more interesting and strategic work now. That said, it's still Amazon. Not sure if I'd be able to leverage it into a Product or Strategic role in the future.

Uh...one of the As in your “ideal exit to FAANG” is Amazon. You hit your own jackpot
