What does a program manager role at Microsoft/Amazon entail? Is it more technical management or business/financials?

It depends. We have program managers, technical program managers, product managers... You'd have to really read the JD to know.

Yep it’s a super wide range here, it’s basically a generic title that many roles have

At least for us, they're only PMO roles. Not technical at all with lower pay and reduced advancement opportunities. I'm on a deals team, however, which is very different from the rest of Amazon, so your mileage will definitely vary.

They're always good 😎

I could use some guidance on how to transition out of firm life into a government role. Prior to law: four years working for a state and a city, and four years before that worked at a consulting agency strictly serving government agencies and cities/counties. You’d think this would parlay well into the government roles I am applying for, but so far no dice. I’m entering my fourth year practicing as a lawyer. I love admin law, have some litigation and some transaction work as a lawyer. Thanks!

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?
