PM vs PO vs GPM
The Product Owner (closer to agile execution) is usually paid below the Product Manager (vision, discovery, business). Group PMs reach the top of the range. Read the actual scope, not the title.
Variable and equity matter
In product, variable (10–20%) and equity (BSPCE/RSU) are significant. A moderate base with strong scale-up equity can beat a higher base without it.
Region and remote
Paris holds the top ranges, but remote opens international grids. Compare PM in Paris or remote.
