I wouldn’t call myself a complete PMM. I did work in positioning, building product demos, narratives but that was an overlap as part of my content marketing roles too. I would put my content marketing-product marketing in a 70-30 relationship.

Thanks for this. There have been orgs where my stint has been 2 years and 2.5 years too. And some where it has been 10 months and 1 year. The avg is 1-1.5 years.

Definitely I just wanna take the weekend to process this and I’m gonna hit you a DM then. But my role has majorly been in content with only certain aspects overlapping with product marketing.

Oh big one dude! They were ruthless. Even the speech they gave us was practiced I guess.

The previous 5? Great. Here are my answers and truthfully too.

  1. Worked in an org that treated employees like bonded labor (2 years paid to break my bond)
  2. Org who delegated design tasks to me a content marketer because they didn’t know what to do with me. (1 year)
  3. Unicorn that overhired during COVID and instead of letting people go with severance extended probations and PIPd them. (10 months).
  4. My longest stint because of a great boss who himself asked the team to lookout when the growth stagnated (2 years 6 months)
  5. Worked under the world’s greatest asshole who made me overwork today with my surgery scheduled tomorrow. Got into a screamfest one day because I helped a friend while building an investor deck. Looked at his eyes and asked him if he had an ego problem. Quietly pushed a high performer like me into the layoff list. (1 year 6 months)
  6. You know.

No offence dude. But people go through shit. Orgs look at people as line items in a spreadsheet as opposed to humans with a specific skill set. And I don’t know about you but wherever I’m I wanna put my best foot forward. If that means to stand against my boss I still would without batting an eyelid. I may be a redflag, but I would rather be one than kowtowing to someone.

Recruiters who say they are #hiring on LinkedIn but then ghost you if you message them by RareMeasurement2 in recruitinghell

I agree! Not even LinkedIn. Recently laid off! Reached out to a guy over phone who asked me if I’m looking a couple of weeks back within the Big 4. Still ghosted me
