    Don’t know PayPal that well and while I think tam in google is not glamorous moving to a different ladder or team isn’t too hard after a year...so for that reason I’d take google given it’s internal mobility

      Yeah the ladder is technical solutions consultant...it’s not a bad role...and yes product manager is a full slate of interviews to move to but you can get to tpm fairly easily

      Could be a healthy chance at PayPal to stay on if they like you and an opening materializes but most PMO roles are just facilitator roles and for a few months you will be mostly ineffective till you get all the pieces
