Product Gym Reviews
- Highly Recommend!- 11/6/2021Michelle Wang • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInPG really helps me understand the interviewing process for Product Manager positions and coaches me through how to review the resume, create the pitch and conduct the interview well. The classes and coaches are very helpful especially as I was crafting my pitch for my interviews. They have a lot of resources available but most importantly you need to study and practice on your own to continually improve yourself and your PM skills. I met many people who offered me help, guidance, and encouragement during the process. I would recommend the program to anyone who is self-motivated and passionate about product management.
- Good for breaking in PM- 10/14/2021Mingming Gui • Verified via LinkedInProduct gym is a really effective program to get you started in PM interviewing and feeling confident about yourself.

- Product- 10/1/2021Ryan • Student • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInBefore I started with Product Gym, I tried hunting down PM roles solo and it was difficult to even get recruiters on the phone for an initial interview. After I joined Product Gym, they outlined their step by step process which I followed and within weeks I was overwhelmed by interviews. They have a tried and true formula that works! In addition, the community of coaches, alumni and current students provides a very positive environment which can help you at all stages - whether you're feeling down because of poor interviews or recruiters not calling you back. I'm very much appreciative of the help Product Gym has provided and I wouldn't be here today without them.
- Product Gym Works- 9/17/2021Ole • Student • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInAfter applying to 100s of product management jobs after graduating from my MBA program and getting no initial interviews I joined Product Gym. Within 40 days I have gotten interviews with 15 different companies, and one job offer. I only started applying 20 days ago. The program is pricey but it works, so if you want to get into product management this is the way to go!!!
- Intense and amazing- 8/3/2021Trust the process and you will get the results!
- Deborah - OC - Product Manager- 7/24/2021Deborah • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInPG helps you understand the interviewing process for Product Manager positions and coaches you through how to interview well. I found the content/classes/instructors to be very helpful especially as I was crafting my stories for my interviews. The community was supportive and I ended up connecting with a members individually through the weekly member calls. It's definitely not a walk in the park and it will feel overwhelming at times, but if you put the work in and take time to really refine your process, then you will discover that the process really works!
- Jong, Seattle, Product Management • Graduate • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInI would recommend Product Gym to anyone without reservation. I’ve experienced a career stagnation in product management for many years, but Product Gym helped me land a job with a higher compensation and a higher job title. I am expecting multiple job offers. Thank you, Product Gym!
- Derek Liu • Student • Course: Product Management • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInThis is a great resource for navigating the mechanical recruiting landscape, especially if you have deep empathy for people, it helps you navigate the process objectively to help you get the best results.
Practice makes perfect, Product Gym makes you do those reps that help you succeed (should you choose to). Interviewing is nothing like the real job, and it's a separate skill you can learn now, even if you're a seasoned product manager.
To Improve:
Would be nice to have a interview guide for questions to ask. There are disparate information between PG course and Product 101/201, thought both are great sources
- 10-20 Interviews per Week- 5/13/2021Michiko Stas • Graduate • Verified via LinkedInProduct Gym is THE reason I am a successful professional.
I went from having no self-confidence, no process, and no interviews to having 100% control of my process and 10-20 interviews a week. I am satisfied, relieved, and grateful for the truly amazing offers I have received through this process. I’m getting ready to accept an offer so I’m going to continue building my professional muscles with PG as I grow and develop in my new role. PG is the only resource I will ever really need to be the great PM I always knew I could be.PG does not charge enough for all that they provide. It would be well worth it at twice the price.
I am so grateful for the work Rich, Cody, and the team have put in. If you have ANY questions I would be thrilled to share my experience in detail.
Look forward to seeing you at the gym.Pros:- Custom branding
- Easy step-by-step application process
- Effective interview preparation
- Offer and negotiation coaching
- Classes on all things PM
- Amazingly supportive community
Cons:- It is a gym, not a spa. Applying for jobs is work. They don’t magically make the work go away.
- Great Program- 4/14/2021ash • Student • Course: Product Management • Campus: New York City • Verified via LinkedInI thoroughly enjoyed my experience. I was coached right from resume creation , strategy for job application, interview prep and corePM skills to ace PM interviews and actually perform well on the job. Highly recommend their program to anyone seriously considering a switch to the product management world.
- Product Manager- 4/9/2021Daniel Bregman • Product Manager • Student • Course: Product Management • Campus: New York City • Verified via LinkedInI came into PG with no interviews and no confidence in myself to transition from an associate pm role into a regular pm role at a tech company. I ended up receiving multiple final round interviews and one offer (so far)Regular help from PG staff. Lots of help with every aspect of the interview process
Time consuming. You need to put in the time to get results.
- H O • Graduate • Campus: New York City • Verified via LinkedInWhat can I say? Within 2 weeks of committing to this program, I was getting interview after interview. Within just a few weeks, I got an offer. All I can say is that the process works, but what's needed is dedication from you. If you are willing to put yourself out there, if you are willing to pick yourself up after getting rejected, if you are willing to trust the process, then you will end up with a product manager role. The community is wonderful, the guidance is excellent, the resources are interactive and thought provoking, but you need to lean in to make it happen.
