PM salary as a recent undergrad

Hi all I recently got a promotion at a thriving fintech company where I am employee number 6. I worked my last year of undergrad as the company spiked. Pay has been low compared to market, but understandable as I hadn't even graduated when I first started and my original role was very broad. As a PM at a growing company right outside of Atlanta with ~2 years work experience including internships, what should I expect? I graduated May 2017, and my internships were solid/reputable companies, although had no relation to PM. Currently have no stock. Also, having no PM experience, am I in over my head? First post and super excited to be a part of this community.

For a salary I would think about 42k would be reasonable on the high end. 33k on the low end. it's unusual to get a pm role right out of college, I would recommend you join the pmp group and work towards a certification and find a mentor.

Made well above this during college, so I expect it'll be a good bit more than this

Do you mean Product Manager or Project Manager? For the latter, you can get a certification to increase your salary. Sorry, not sure about Atlanta salaries, but Glassdoor has some good salary info you can check out at similar companies in your area.

Product manager. I checked Glassdoor and have a decent idea, but I also am curious because of the lack of the experience what I should expect.

all about marketing... it's non trivial to know who is a new grad.
