Anyone else ever feel like you get treated like a personal assistant vs a marketing project manager? Any tips on how to explain the difference? For example, I’m getting a lot of “schedule this” “take notes” etc. - it’s more of the tone in how it’s directed, like I know what I’m doing, I do not need to be told what to do!

Folks
Yoe :5 years
My 3rd company(product) after working for 2 service based
My previous company I was working for a client where ppl frm Diff service based companies work together. Everyone have dedication towards work as the role was good.

Now the problem is with the current cmpny guys don't care about the work and the role isn't that challenging and don't see people take seriously abt work like loging quite late while the role requires to be in shift at right time.
Hard to mingle.
thoughts?

My main contact at my client always interrupts me and talks over me when he asks a question and I start to answer it. At first I was trying to be polite, now I just get louder and keep talking. 💁🏽‍♀️

I was under the assumption that Nagarro is offering permanent work from home opportunity. During HR discussion when I asked about it, the HR said it is specific to projects and if the client is fine with your wfh you can take it. What's the scenario guys?

So I have a huge crush on my co worker, we’re on the same project and same job position but this is the first time I’ve had an office crush. We’re very friendly and chat almost through out the day. I also know that there’s a possibility of me shifting companies as soon as this project is over (Feb ‘23). What should I do?
A. Should I remain professional and not say a word? Wait till I’m out to make a move?
B. Casually ask him out?
C. Ask myself to get over it?

TIA!

Looking for recruiting firms to help me find my next project / program management role.

Struggling to determine which firms can help with PM roles AND I'm struggling to get the ones I do find to respond to me. It may have something to do where I'm at in my career - 15+ years of PM experience & director-level roles at my last 2 companies - so more exec level but not quite C-Suite. Have tons of one-off recruiters hitting me up on LinkedIn about contract PM roles but that's not what I want.

Are there any groups at Salesforce that value developers? I'm in Q Branch and it baffles me how solution engineers make $30-$40k (I make $99k) more than me when I've been developing on the Salesforce platform for 8 years. I get that they are client facing but if it wasn't for my team and me, they wouldn't land as many big deals. I could make $140k elsewhere for context

Hi PM,
Any tips on managing up? I have a new supervisor who is a bit of a micromanager. She says she delegates the task to me and will provide oversight, but in reality she just does everything herself and asks me questions that are already on the PM tool. Would love any advice that you have!

Seeking advice. I work in fashion as a Creative Producer and I'm looking to transition to a PM or Digital Producer role with an AD agency to get more experience.

Should I take a pay cut (possibly entry level role) for an opportunity to get the digital experience I need? Would love some feedback!

I've been a digital advertising PM now about 3.5 years. I accidentally through negotiations for more money wound up as a senior PM at my last agency and I constantly feel like an imposter.

I never feel good enough for the role and the one thing I think I need is a window into the life of a GREAT PM. I'm tired of feeling like my teams are disappointed in me.

Can someone shed some light on their daily activities and what it takes to be a success in this role? I know it differs every where.
