Does the pm role gets lonely down the line

It is always lonely at top

SPM at a start-up (Series A). Benefit of being at a start-up is that I spend a lot of time with the engineers and get dirty hands-on, so this concern is not there. I also interact significantly with sales, partnerships team, lead PM & Engg leaders. It's not lonely, but it's draining AF.

Interesting pov, yes probably if you are in a smaller company.

Don't think so. At stage, PM works closely with founders, engineers alike. Teams are small and opportunities to bond exist. Growth and MNC: stakeholders increase and so does the product team. Interact with them. None of the engineers also work "together". Everyone works on a different piece of the same problem. And I think same applies to PMs also. If someone is looking at discovery then someone else is for conversion or retention
