Would you make a pivot from a product management role in a big Pharma to a solution engineer role at salesforce?

I’ve been working for this pharma for over a decade and I’m under 30. Started to feel a bit frustrated with my product scope and my new director certainly doesn’t like me much as others did. Just feeling a bit unsafe due to comfort zone and size of business, and although salesforce is also huge, I’d moving from client to seller side. Thoughts?

I will suggest not to do that. Stay in uk industry salesforce se is a tough space right now and it involves ever evolving shit of products to be sold that are not always tenable.
