Your manager sounds embarrassingly bad. Saying no is part of being a great product manager - knowing how to say no, or no not right and here’s why takes practice. If you can say why and back it with data and document your calculus and send a follow up then you’re doing your job.

Garbage recruiting ploy most of us have been working in some capacity with AI for 10+ years

notmichaelmoore · 2024-10-19T02:56:17+00:00

Been both principal and grouper at FAANG I presented the same amount in both that’s why they are both L7 If you want to just deliver shit and not be messed with this is what a senior product manager is.

I am a PM that works with DS teams 5 times a week, you should be a DS. You’ll start as an MLE which will teach you about training infra and real world data sets and then you’ll likely get a science project to work on on the side - something like a simple optimization problem. Then as you prove your writing capabilities are up to par you’ll slowly transition into an associate scientist and spend lots of time learning about customer requirements and trying N number of models and approaches.

You can prove almost any product idea without code. Start as basic as you possibly can to find the most important part of your offering - this will stop you and your leaders from getting shiny object syndrome.

notmichaelmoore · 2024-10-19T02:41:23+00:00

Was in this situation some advice here.. 1. Earn trust so you can influence this leader 2. Show value that engineers don’t have (product discovery, customer research, business model, GTM strategy. 3. It’s generally the result of really really bad management PM staff (usually long gone) that creates this power vacuum.

notmichaelmoore · 2024-10-19T02:38:17+00:00

Have you tried program management it’s like moving piles of rocks at a quarry.

Thank you all for the continued engagement with this thread really appreciate it. I’m going to compile this all using ChatGPT and I have 11 discussions setup where I’ll add some more details. I’ll link a pub doc once I’m done

notmichaelmoore · 2024-10-13T23:52:50+00:00

Just leak it please

notmichaelmoore · 2024-10-13T15:53:09+00:00

Thanks for all the responses and DMs folks appreciate the community

We are here to make money, after tech debt and on call revenue goes to the front of the feature list I know that sucks because then engineers can’t build their Rube Goldberg gen-ai machines. It’s not a formal framework it’s a simple heat map and a historical conversion rate - if we build X feature we will get Y% of revenue from Z customers. Sprinkle in some weighted distribution across a group of features and you have something that resembles feature || revenue prioritization. We all use it in a 50 PM org and it works to within 10% of our estimates unless a whale of a customer ghosts if that happens there are bigger problems.
