I am a product management enthusiast who is preparing to enter into this domain but whenever this kind of news circulates then Dil sa toot jaata hai. I mean the product roles in FAANG and similar companies are a dream for many but when layoffs begin , it reminds me ki jab most sought after hi layoff kr rhi to baaki product companies ka kya hi Bharosa

It's the same for all companies and roles. If you need to a bit more job security, then you will have to give up on high salaries, or brand name, or sometimes equal of both. But still, at the end of the day, all of us are disposable assets for the company, hired to get a delegated task done.

Also, this was not a product role, but a program manager role, with tech focus.

But even in some cases, product manager role will be at risk when the role becomes just an overhead and doesn't do what a product manager is supposed to do.

There is no technical or business contribution from them. Those are only required for very large projects where too many teams and orgs are required. Hence TPM jobs are not safe due to high salary and less contribution to business
