Los Angeles Product Manager Salary

It seems like most of the salaries here are bay area centric. I work at a big tech company (not FB, Google , etc). I'm in LA and have 2 yoe. My base salary is 125k. I'm wondering what other PM salaries are like in LA -- either for companies like FAANG or not. What can I expect 5 years down the line? I will have a salary discussion with my manager soon.

I got an offer in LA for $135K with 2 YoE for non-FAANG. This is for PM, not APM

cool! mind sharing the name of the company? of the breakdown? is 135k just base?

Yoe?

For reference: had on offer for Junior PM with 1 yoe in Orange County. Large tech, but non-FAANG. Offered 100k tc, was able to negotiate to 120tc. So depending on your experience, I guess your not doing bad. Okay, now leaning back and waiting for bay area spoilt brats 😂

$125k with 2 yoe is pretty solid in LA! That is at least at level with (if not higher than) a lot of the non-FAANGs out here in LA from a base-perspective for 2 yoe.

@avocado100 it’s pretty good! Lots of cool opportunities to pitch and drive new feature development here.

This is a great base salary for a PM in LA with just 2 yoe.
