No. Might be internal IT, but not client facing for sure.

I heard engagement leader/project leader but I see someone on LinkedIn specifically as “project manager”

The person may be an engagement manager but just put project manager on LinkedIn so other people can easily understand their role.
Business analysts and associates do the same thing and put consultant on LinkedIn all the time

Fake news?

I saw this on LinkedIn too lol

No. Not officially. However, some folks use that when they start to play the manager role before getting promoted to the Engagement Manager role. It’s mostly so that if clients look up the manager they don’t see that we are staffing an Associate to be the Manager of a project, which might give them the feeling that we are not invested in the project.

Similarly, we don’t have Senior Consultant, but we’re actually discouraged to use “Business Analyst” and “Associate” with clients and use “Consultant” instead.

You would put your true title on your resume however, but on LinkedIn I understand why we need to be flexible.

I've been working here for about two years now, and I have to say, I love my job. The company culture is great and the people are wonderful to work with. But recently, I've noticed that my manager has been asking me to do more and more work on my own without giving me any additional compensation for my time. He just keeps telling me that if I want to get ahead, then this is what I need to do.

I'm not sure what to do here—do you have any advice?
