Indian. I am a SDE (backend) currently. ~2 yrs exp. 16 LPA and I work 40-50 hrs a week. I like where I am, but I am not feeling the zeal for tech anymore. Probably will do a MBA down the line (thinking abroad, not sure) Looking for equal or greater pay, similar WLB, new domain. Should I switch to PM and try a hand at it? Am I aware of the reality or living in my own isolated reality?

I am a PM with 10+ years experience. I am now interviewing with Meesho for Heading their lending vertical. This is not a pure PM role but it involves setting up a vertical grounds up. Not sure if this is a right role for my career right now. Any thoughts would be appreciated 😌

Hi, I know it’s a much debated topic but I wanted honest views of my fellow grapers/viners/grapeviners. How valuable is an MBA as a PM? What are the trade-offs - MBA vs Non MBA? Does it affect the career 10 years down the line? About myself: I’ve 3.5 years of work experience as a PM in the BFSI sector. I did my engineering from a tier 1 institute and started my career as a PM. Currently wondering what to do next. The learning experience in the current company has been below par as of today with no signs of improvement. I would like to explore VC, PE but I’m happy with PM too. If you are pro MBA, bonus points for suggesting any relevant courses. If against, then please suggest any upskilling resources 🙌🏻 TIA

I'm working as a technical product manager who has transitioned from analytics/data science role with over 5+ yoe and 2yoe as PM. I am earning in the range of 35-55LPA right now. While I am happy with the salary, I am not content with the role I have performed as PM so far. When I go for textbookish PM tasks and roles, I feel I don't do so much in my daily routine. Because of the nature of companies I worked in I didn't get a lot of hands on exposure into UX and the growth side of the job. I don't have a lot of confidence with many areas of product management and feel like at this stage for me to grow needs a significant skill and confidence boost. To do the same I'm looking for courses/degrees. I'm hoping to get more better opportunities if I have certification in my portfolio. What are your thoughts on the topic? Also, if you could suggest whether Hero vired certification in product management partnered with INSEAD will be a good choice? I will really appreciate objective feedback / frameworks that will help me with making the decision.

Hi folks, I work at a B2B SaaS company (been 2 years now) as a PM. From the last 12 months, my work has mostly revolved around strategy, business intelligence, program/general mgmt. I am now planning to quit and move on. However, I am not sure if I want to continue being a PM, because it's very overwhelming honestly and I actually enjoyed the last 12 months as a generalist. Need career advice whether to pursue program mgmt/strategy/general mgmt/Chief of staff/new initiatives roles or devote my time to prepare for PM interviews and also try to make up for the last 12 months. Some pointers about me: 1. I have a CS degree from a tier II college but haven't coded in a while. 2. There is no particular reason to quit. The job is chill & remote. 3. The head office is in the US. There is a possibility of moving to the US as well in the next 1 year. 4. The pay is fine. Not the best out there but decent

Hello Fellow Grapeviners, I am actively on the lookout for PM roles in E-commerce/Travel OTA/Fintech. I have 3 years of PM exp- worked in private Banks, have good exposure to different BFSI products - from savings accounts, cards, payments to new age tech - Tokenization, Account Aggregators, Product recommendation engine. Currently facing quite a bit of Role Ambiguity - too many people involved in a simple product decision - so thinking of pursuing greener pastures. Please let me know if there are any suitable openings in your orgs. Feel free to contact me over Telegram. ID -@draagonbornn Note- Looking for Bangalore location only. Thanks & Cheers for the long weekend ahead 😸🍺

I have been working as an APM at a series C startup for the last 1 year. I did my MBA from a tier 1 college. Worked as a full stack developer for 2 years before that. Am I underpaid? What would be a fair market compensation. Should I try getting another PM job in a different company or switch back to being a dev. ( Not liking PM that much, the dev role was a better experience.)

Hi guys, I have between 5-6 years of experience in engineering role (QA/Test automation). However over these years I have found the role to be unfulfilling due to the growth, impact and visibility. I have been considering going for a full time executive MBA (In India/Abroad) to switch into a PM/Strategy role. Wanted to understand if this is going to be really worth it, considering I will have high chances to start again at an entry level position? Or is this common to do post MBA?
