alot can change for better or worse

One challenge for MBAs is that a lot of the career switchers are not able to find tech p.m. rolls because there's so many experienced tech PM'S floating around without a job already, if you don't have tech or PM experience before Business School it's pretty tough
amazon pathways is only real option for no experince

or other such operations supply chain roles

thats where batch mates went not PM

One thing heard from MBB recruiter recently

Consulting jobs getting impacted by AI... but impact is uneven

Generalist consults are more venerable if it’s pure domain agnostic strategy kinda

While Implementation consultants will raise .. with someone with domain expertise able help those industries deeply navigating AI

Yes and no

AI automates a lot of generalist Product Manager(PM) work—drafting PRDs/user stories, summarizing research, writing release notes, basic competitive scans, and lightweight data pulls.

The stuff that’s harder for AI to replace—and where technical PMs ( TPM) tend to shine—is deep systems thinking and constraints

So if you are MBA going for TPM role great career ahead

But most of MBA aspiring for generalist PM it’s tough

Agreed at the same time it seems the sentiment is driving everything so if people feel it’s not going good regardless of the numbers, the market will crash.

Similarly, right now people seem to be ignoring a lot of warning indicators feeling that the fundamentals are strong... it’s all the feelings

Without the rate cut the real estate is stuck. Seems nothing’s moving on the market these days because it’s unaffordable with the current interest rates.
