This is such a massive company that your geography and practice mean all the difference. Yes, strategy is definitely not lax and luckily in my geography it’s also not cut throat. You should do some research if you also would consider staying.

EY, particularly the CLT office is pretty backstabby, try them on for size.

I’m trying to pivot to PM after >3 years in finance and I have a 2nd round interview with CPO this week. Company has 3.7 on Glassdoor with complaints about CEO, “bro-y” culture, and hard to wfh. It’s a data analytics company with 5 PMs, was bought by a PE firm this year, and has a new (female) CEO as of Oct. Role is 50/50 hybrid, pays well vs what I make, and most importantly would be a foot in the door to PM. Is this a good place to be for PM? What else do I need to find out to know for sure?
