You should clarify what you mean by PM; product and project management are different things. I assume its one of those rather than Programme Management or Prime Minister...

ps. a cheatsheet for a famous general management-onboarding book The First 90 Days; while it doesn't specifically address your question a lot of it will apply:

This is true. Although, I’m not sure how many medium size companies have their own Prime Ministers.

Your first few weeks at any company in any role, though, are well spent meeting people and learning the product really well.

I also like to get or sit in on a sales demo and an onboarding call.

Since I've seen a growing number of Chief Of Staffs in startups, I'd guess the number of companies with Prime Minister roles is non-zero.

Maybe even with very sensible titles like 'Junior Prime Minister'.

This is a very fair rebuttal as a person who has worked at a company where we had a 'Chief Spider Wrangler' for a time.
