Perception management - How well is someone actually managing up! - I feel this plays a key role in promotions and corresponding calibrations.

For SWE, there are clear goals and results (“Did their code work well?”), but for roles like PM where output is not directly measurable, and is subjective, how is the pay determined?

Met a PM from IIT / IIM with 4 years of experience. He is working at a  well know soonicorn at a salary of 17  lakhs per year . He used to draw 30 lakhs per year in his last role before we was laid off . Interesting Times ahead

A minute of silence to all the grapevine polls where salary expectations are so high 😁

How is the Product Management market in India?
I have been hearing that compensation for PM roles are coming back to pre-Covid times (a few exceptional people I knew got laid off but found higher paying opportunities within weeks)

Guys any idea why product management interns are paid low as compared to the Full time. While they're having high impact then their swe intern counter parts and more rigorous hiring cycle

Based on my experience, here's what I've seen so far:
PM 1 - 20-30 lakh
PM 2 - 30-40 lakh
SPM - 45-55 lakh

What does the salary range for GPM, Director and VP look like?

PM salary progression?

Software developers vs product managers in terms of compensation, who is gonna earn more in long term or where the ceiling of income is higher , what is the opportunities for product managers waiting in near future with the tech landscape changing rapidly and advancements in AI ? Is it dim or bright

SWEs vs PMs

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

1. They are the most overpaid people in India.
2. They have no work life balance and they don't even know what it means.
3. They think they are the best at everything, but they can't do anything right.
4. They are always complaining about their job and how much they hate it.
5. They are never satisfied with their salary or benefits package.
6. They are always looking for new jobs because they think they deserve better than what they currently have.

Would you like to add anything else here?

PM as seen by Engineers: 
 1. Doesn't do anything other than throwing random jargons 
 2. Can't explain what they do other than say how they are not Program manager or something else

I see a lot of product managers come from an engineering background. They have worked for a few years as an engineer before making the transition. I want to understand the factors that led to the to make the switch. 

Also, how has that turned out after moving to product management? Did you find the things that you were looking for?


PS: It is also common knowledge that PMs are paid less than engineers.
