A Product Manager is only as good as the product he has worked upon.

why does this feel like a personal attack

Product Manager

Senior Product Manager

You are not the CEO of the product (unless you're CPO/CEO)

Don't ignore the boring things – the devil's is in the details!

Ui/ux is not Product. Understand how the whole machine/product  works

Engineering Manager

-Always think from the perspective of the end-user !   
 -Never ignore the end users feedback 
 -Follow 80/20 rule during MVP phase 
 -Do discuss about all the suggestions of all stakeholders no matter how stupidest it may sound

Product Management Advice

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Note - I am a product manager too

4 out of 5 product managers will act all high and mighty of themselves, bragging their way as if they run everything going on in the company, flaunting their business degrees and being utterly disrespectful towards their team( dev design qa name it), 

Recently started going to office so the attitude I am seeing is very transparent and more visible (more with the higher experience folks)

It makes me wanna leave this hyper inflated role, thinking of I will end up like them scares me, and you have to do is speak out jargons in meetings day in day out and have a English accent of Shashi Tharoor.

Recently my manager told that this is a role where you have to very representable or very visible and act in floor as if you are the busiest person on earth and I seriously some PMs in company doing that, they walk so fast in floor as if they will fall off or would be better to have 4 legs.

I am done with this product management shit

Contradictory to your lesson… I learned not to get too attached to your code. Bcoz it might just get scraped.

Inspired from @salt post in Product Managers channel.

Underrated skills to have for Product Management

Product Marketing Manager

Hi there, as i am a fresher and currently doing my PM internship with a startup, so for full time should I look for MNC's or stick to here only.

Because here i think we can learn too many things as i am learning.

But in terms of problem solving i think MNC'S are great because there we will solve one bigger problem. And here we solve too many small problems.

What's your take on that?

Startup Vs MNC's In Terms of Learning.

Transitioning to an SPM role (IC for now) in a new org soon and wanted some advice from the ones who’ve been there and done that (SPMs, VPs, Directors)

What are some absolute must-do things in the first 3 months to set the groundwork for success?

What are some common pitfalls to avoid?

Any good resources that helped you, please share :)

Advice from Product Leaders

Background: I work in a D2C consumer product startup, we have an in-house website and a growing tech team of 7 people. The whole business team is 100+. I'm a '23 grad from a tier 1 engineering college.

I joined the company back in September when the job market was at the bottom and I had to take a 40% pay cut (21LPA to 12LPA) (while switching (the last company ran out of funding). I was at a higher than avg base in my previous role but the current role is 20% below the average. (15LPA) The company is in a growth stage and lots of processes are yet to be defined which leads to a lot of chaos but I get a lot of freedom as well.

My manager is aware of the whole situation and we had also negotiated a 6-month review for ESOP allotment. My monthly reviews have been going well and we have shipped some good improvements and features over the last few months.

Only PM in the startup, how much appraisal should I ask for at 6 months?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I am PM with around 5 yrs of experience. I’m struggling to take my skill to next level. always receive feedback from management that output isn’t good, mostly that UX isn’t good. what can I do to improve my work?

1. Read books ? 
2. Study successful products from outside ?
3. Listen to podcasts 
4. Work with great product people? but hardly these exist 
5. leave this field altogether?
6. Just have patience and keep learning everyday?

Can experienced people share what has worked out well for them? or point me to some directions?
