damn wtf does sf apm get paid more than swe?

#

ive heard google apm is super good yeah

#

160 base is crazy

#

I think the program itself seems pretty cool but idk if it’s worth doing it but then the pay is more than bbg

Probably only worth if you're locked in on doing PM

#

PM leveling doesn't scale nearly as well as SWE

#

Probably also research what the exits are for previous APMs

#

I've seen a lot go into Solutions Eng / FDE which also pay slightly less than SWE long term but are def cool roles

#

What I’ve heard is that it’s a 2 year rotation program and then you either promote to PM or senior PM based on performance

some people are also directors @ Salesforce at age 27-28 but I’m sure you gotta be cracked for that

i know a pm guy who transitioned from swe, he makes over 1m/year now

#

its largely true for most big tech

#

salesforce and google could be outliers no clue

#

Pms do make alot depending on company I think it’s harder to breakthrough into pm straight from grad since it always requires YOE

#

if I do take the PM route I’d prolly opt into highly technical teams because I think the non tech PMs aren’t as effective in the industry tbh
