Thinking of getting into product and starting fresh, but the reduction in product roles going forward makes me think will I do another career step mistake . Please suggest

I was super curious for product management roles and switch to startups was one of easy bets, my current role( 3 yr work ex as implementation consultant) in B2B involved customer interaction and working on requirements on OOTB product,but back then i didn't appear many interviews, i wasn't actively applying but with recent scenario of all layoffs and startups fundings, what should be a good strategy now? Need suggestions from experienced folks

Hey people I'm thinking of transitioning into PM or TPM role. I've 5+ years of Software Engineering, I really like management side and have done alot of PM stuff in my previous and current org. I make 3.5Ish monthly working in prod org.

Hello Everyone, I am a 2018 BTech (NIT) pass out and 2022 IIM pass out with a total of 2.2 years of Workex (1.2 yrs post-MBA) and currently working as an Associate Product Manager. I am not really enjoying my role and I feel Product Management is not suitable for me because of multiple reasons some of them being, 1. I am doing issue resolutions rather than problem-solving which I love to do. 2. I am not very much interested in driving technical discussions or solving technical challenges in the process of Product Development which is the case in my current role. 3. I want to be part of a Business role where I can leverage the knowledge I have gained during my MBA and work on some problem statements related to the core businesses of the company. 4. There is no skin in the game of a PM compared to Devs, QAs, and Designers. As a PM I feel I am just delegating, prioritizing, and following up with the requirements. Most of my learnings are around managerial aspects and not business knowledge. 5. I want to be a part of business roles where I can go deeper into problems and come up with my recommendations/thoughts on them. I am looking for new roles where Strategy, Analysis and Core Business Problem solving are involved. I am really not sure what kind of roles are these. Please help me with the roles I can explore and how to approach the job search for such kinds of roles. Thanks In Advance.

Anyone has suggestions or actually experienced the above can help me out with this situation and where to begin.. don’t want generic stuff but a practical way of doing it

Hey. I have close to 6 years of Experience in Sales and Customer centric roles but recently I have developed an interest in Product Development. For reference, I have an Engineering degree in Computer Science and MBA as well. A few questions for clarity: 1. Is it possible to make this transition into a Product role at this stage of my career? 2. If I want to teach myself the skills of a product manager, how should I start and what resources should i refer to, to begin with that can start the learning process?

I worked hard for last 2-3 years and finally got into product mgmt from business strategy role. Now I keep listening that product mgmt is a dying career, it has no future, it will be gobbled up by AI. I am really exhausted of this catchup game. I sometimes feel that things would have been better if I had joined some FMCG company in a supply chain - ops role. Those roles are much more stable than these high stress startup roles. What should be my plan to lead a more peaceful yet decently high paying career? In need of some great advice folks...pls share valuable comments 🙂

Please let me know about the companies looking for product managers/analysts for freshers. Internship and FTE roles both are to be considered. Thanks.

sasta tikao kucch ho to batao pls?

I am a 2023 grad and I have been looking for a entry level product role. I was interning with a startup but couldn’t get full time due to funding issues. Have got a offer as Senior Business Analyst (recruiter said it’s Product Analyst don’t why they call it BA and interviewer said not much difference between APM and this role work wise). Been facing the dilemma of whether to take it or keep looking for a new role. Not sure what to do. Comp is 10L, notice period -2 months. Bootstrapped startup and I have a engineering background (CS)
