Product management is a pretty senior role in traditional industry, which sadly new tech has started handing out to fresh college grads. Dell is a product company, and this sounds like the traditional product management role which I don’t think is a consulting M exit level.

With the caveat that I know nothing of Dell’s levels, I would assume that level role at a company like Dell would expect some years of product management leadership experience. Newer Big 4 managers might get onto a PdM team if they have experience with it or be product manager for a small product or portfolio.

OP - I think I know who you may be referring to in this example. Yes C exited to a director role. I have a couple of explanations for this. Firstly he was a sharp consultant who was generally well liked by those he worked with. Had very good support and rapport with senior leadership also. Plus the firm sponsored his graduate program. In this instance I believe his network really came thru for him, and he’s landed in a good spot. I have worked with him in the past, and can say that his performance and client rapport put him in the higher performance pool.

Highly unlikely

It's not for me. Saw someone who did it and was shocked ...

I saw someone exit to that role after one and a half years as a M and hence, got curious..

That person was a homegrown D. No outside experience

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
