I’m an engineer by graduation, but I ended up working at Bain and got laid off last year. Maybe, consulting isn’t the right industry for me, but I’m looking for something that’s not as technical as a core engg or an IT job, but also not as non technical as Human Resources (I don’t mean to demean HR, but this is based on my perception). 
What would be the right kind of job for me?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey people,
   I am a software engineer. I am thinking of pivoting to leadership kind of roles like EIR, founders office, product manager, etc. 
   For people who are currently in such roles or know people in these roles, do you think people from tech(engineering) background, pivoting to this role at age of 24-25 yrs is advisable? Would people hiring for these roles see that I don't hold an MBA?
   What are the things about these roles I should be aware of?

I have an engineering background but have been working as Ads specialist/campaign manager, since 3 years. It is an analytical role but doesn’t necessarily require my degree. Are there any roles where I can easily pivot to? My research says Business Analyst would a good role. I’m good with excel but will need to learn BI/Tableau. What do you guys think?

Hi! I'm in a non tech role at a tech company - I work in Corporate Communications. Are there others here who work in similar roles?

Non tech role at a tech company

Communication

After completing engineering I got a full time job opportunity in a logistic company as a business analyst. At the start everything was good but slowly I was pushed in the non technical department. Right now my majority of work consists of people's management. There is no technical aspect left in my job role and neither am I learning anything. After spending 02 years in the company I learned nothing. After realising my mistake I started learning SQL and then I've planned to learn Tableau as I have an inclination towards Data Analytics but due to my toxic job I can't focus on things. Also I can't leave the current job as I am having the responsibilities of my family.
Seeing my friends succeeding in their job really makes me anxious. 
Also I can't apply for jobs in service based companies like TCS, Wipro, Accenture etc. as I'm having 4 years educational gap after class 10 due to financial issues. My father lost his job so I was  helping my father who was working in a local groceries shop during that time.

Data Analyst

Hey folks,
I'm wondering what kinda role I should pursue next after product management. 
I'm done with this role, works vary from company to company and team to team. It's tough to make people understand the difference between pre-PMF products & mature products, and how the metrics impact vary across the spectrum. 
And this completely changes the equation of your appraisal or your promotion as well. 
I don't see myself working in the same kind of role after 5 years.
So I'm wondering what kinda role I should look out for?
My general interests are more analytics & strategy centric. What do you guys think??

What's the best Non-Tech role in the software field to get into?

Please Guide

Background: Working with B2B SaaS startup raised $165m till now. 
No appraisal this year. 
Multiple changes of top management, a boss added between reporting manager and CEO

10 months into, the role has changed from what was told, and I envisioned. Day to day work has become running behind people, taking statuses and giving to manager.
Mentally and physically draining(extensive travel) 

Sat with manager, told this is not working for me. Can the role be developed into analytical or strategic approach or new role in another department?

Three things can happen now
- Manager actually gets me something better
- Manager does nothing
- Manager fires me because I don't like the work

Tbh, all three work for me. 

Also, if you are hiring I'm open to chatting.
6 YOE, category management and business roles

How can a it professional (btech) can switch to non tech basically hr without mba degree? Any suggestions?

To skip the long story I was fired out of nowhere by the company I was working for my supervisor never told me I was doing nothing wrong everybody played it off until I received a call saying they let me go I have 2 kids under 2 it’s been hard trying to upskill and study for to make myself more valuable and my spouse works idk what to do I feel like I’m useless and a waste of life.

I’ve been unemployed since November 2023, I feel like I’ll never find a job in tech again.

Hi All, 

I’ll start with ‘About Myself’ -
I have 4-years of experience working in a Fintech organisation as a Software Engineer. But .. I hate it. Early in the college itself, I identified that I’m not strong technically (coding, DSA, and all), but, I’m quite good at Consulting / Management / Leadership roles. However, as always, under the peer pressure of my friends, family, and relatives too (yup, I know what you’re thinking) .. I still opted for a Technical line of work.

I realised it early itself that in most of the organisations, DS Algorithms and all won’t be needed. I was asked to work on a specific technology as per my team’s requirements and I did the best possible. I even indulged myself into the the then hot-topic ‘Cloud Computing’. Now, I am a hard-working person and damn I impressed everyone in my team. I’ve received countless awards and appreciations, quarter by quarter. And I’m currently acting as an Unofficial Technical Lead (with just 4 years experience in an MNC) for a team of almost 40 people, helping them with their work and tasks (which I’ve mastered already). But, my own personal growth here has taken a toll as now I am no longer developing anything myself, and neither is my Unofficial role of much value when I look for opportunities elsewhere.

My personal interests are into Management / Consulting roles. I’m even planning and preparing for an MBA degree from outside India next year to pursue the same.

However, till then, my question is .. HOW DO I SWITCHOVER from this technical line of work to Consulting / business / management line of roles (considering the difficulties of me being inexperienced in that line as of today on paper .. and a shift from 4 years of Technical experience to 0 years of Consulting / Management experience should be profitable).

Open to all suggestions and arguments.
