SmythOS is a breath of fresh air in the crowded OS market. The interface is clean, with a strong emphasis on usability. Its lightweight nature ensures fast boot times and quick operations, even with limited resources. I love how well it handles different file formats natively.

[@BrokenRecord-i7q]

Once again thanks for the fantastic video, as a PM would like to disagree on the work-life balance part, its no way less hectic than consulting in fact its more because a lot of our time is spent on building, scaling and monitoring an actual feature which is technically complicated for which you are responsible for even at 2 a.m on a Saturday night in comparison to the fake and less sophisticated work that happens in consulting like travelling, making ppts!

[@InsiderGyaan]

Sure i guess it really depends on the company and product also. All the people i talked to generally said work life isnt too bad but ofcourse there are more work n pressure days

[@red_crusade]

"fake and less sophisticated" Why the condescension?

very well explained @Insider Gyaan!! Thank you for combining all the points related to a Product Manager. In crux, the PM has THE BIG PICTURE in view and it is what makes this role unique!!😁 Working in tech development related role and interested in actual product impact for the end user/customer, I feel this role is something I've always leaned towards! Thanks for making this picture clear!!

Thanks Insider Gyaan for creating this video. I am wondering If I can get your thoughts on this - I recently discovered product management but my impression so far is that I can be paid well (sweet sweet tech salary), don't need to code, don't need any special certifications/MBA/MS Computer Science (or any specific degrees for that matter) or specific experiences. Seems too good to be true. Wondering if I am missing something?

I am in a devloper, what are the ways to move in to a product manager role.

[@unwind218]

Very well explained. You really covered this topic in depth and breadth. Very insightful 😊 I have one question though, as you explained that even consultants move to this role, so I wanted to check specifically if consultants from top companies get hired into product management roles of top companies like microsoft, paytm, meta, google, amazon etc. if they have a strong past technical background and related education but may not have worked in tech related projects in consulting.

[@InsiderGyaan]

Yea they do. Google for instance would hire a lot of mck folks as their strategic product managers
