I'm wondering if there are actually any freelance or part-time opportunities for product managers.

I have only seen PMs work in full-time positions.

Is PM by design a full time function?

Fellow PMs do share your 2 cents on this! 🙌

What are some of the most relevant alternate career tracks for a PM?

I have recently transitioned from a business development role to a Product Role in new company. I am also looking to start a freelancing gig on side to earn some extra. What are the must have / essentials i need to know to get my first freelancing gig as a PM?

Tips needed!

Hi folks,

I work at a startup (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 from fellow PMs whether to pursue program mgmt/strategy/general mgmt/Chief of staff/new initiatives roles or devote 100% of my time to prepare for PM interviews and also try to make up for the last 12 months by doing side projects and maybe even interning under a senior PM 

Some pointers about me:

1. I have 2 YoE in PM. 
2. I have a CS degree from a tier 1/2 college
3. There is no particular reason to quit. Job is chill

Career Dillema | PM feels overwhelming

Hello everyone! I am currently seeking PM opportunities. I have over one year of experience in building and overhauling internal tools, as well as working with a FinTech client, managing and scaling finance products for over 50 million users across the United States. Due to a lack of work-life balance, I am looking to switch to a position in India, and I am open to both hybrid and fully remote roles. If there are any opportunities in your organization, please let me know!

Are quiet PMs able to learn more on product management.


Day by Day Linkedin posts on PM by PM Influencers are shitholes.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I have been thinking for quite sometime now to start some side hustle to make some passive money. I just want to develop some interest apart from primary work as a software engineer. Something I can work on over the coming years. Do you have a side hustle? Looking for some ideas.

Freelancer/ Consulting opportunities for a Product Manager

Hi everyone,

I came across a 36 week product management course from IIM Kozhikode (Approx 1.8 L + GST) and a 12 week program from ISB (Approx 1.4 L + GST).

Do these courses/programs help? I am interested in understanding product management better and if these courses will help me in achieving that (and potentially help my career), I might enroll in one of these 2 courses.

A bit of background - I am nearing 16 years in IT. Was primarily into Automation testing and now am a Test Manager in a big4.

I am okayish with my current salary but wouldn't think twice if a better role with better pay came my way. Also, don't mind moving from a Test Manager role to Product Management.

I browsed through the curriculum and some of the topics I am already familiar with. 
Would you suggest I enroll in one of these courses and will it help having  a certification from one of these institutes? I guess I could also read books and browse YouTube for knowledge but,I doubt that would have the same impact as one of these courses (provided they are of use and actually have good content).

Need advice: Are the product mgmt programs from IIM , ISB worth the fees?
