Why are Google PMs paid ₹60 LPA while TCS PMs get ₹8 LPA? Same job title. 7.5x salary difference. 5. I have seen that those who make a lot of money most of the time handle the Profit and loss statement of the product, and those who earn less generally handle the Timelines. 4. Google PMs build products. TCS PMs build what the client asks for. 3. Google's business model creates 21.8x more value per employee. → Google: ₹109 Cr revenue per employee  → TCS: ₹5 Cr revenue per employee 2. Google PMs are measured on user metrics. TCS PMs on client satisfaction. 1. Google PMs work on a global scale. TCS PMs work with the project scope. 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿, 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗺𝗲.

Not really an apple-to-apple comparison. Google PMs drive end-to-end strategy & user growth, while many service-firm PMs focus on delivery where the roadmap is already set by a senior/client PM. Both are right, just different levels of ownership. I’ve even seen high-paid PMs in small startups and low-paid PMs in big MNCs. It’s all about scope & value created.

Research, product discovery, market analysis, competitive analysis, AB product testing, Funnel testing are the major difference. I am sure PM working at the client side of the product of TCS must be getting equivalent of what you mentioned as Google PM. The difference in salary depends on the scope of work, level of work and high stake holder responsibilities you are taking, when these are higher, salary will be higher too and to get these more experience is required. TCS is still good for someone to start with (someone with 0-3 year experience this salary is not bad that you have mentioned) and later market will consume people where they fit depending on their experience, learning and overall work profile. And someone to reach the level you described as Google PM needs 6-12 year experience atleast.
