Some customers hire an external PM to run projects.

Yes many times

What about Europe based customers? In how many cases there is an external pm - could you give percentage level?

What are you specifically looking for, OP?

Seen it happen in multiple continents, including Europe

Yes, many times

I am an external PM hired by client. Treated like one of their own, not like a consultant. Loving that life...bringing knowledge and experience that the client doesn't have, but not being crapped on like a consultant when things go wrong. Just picked up second assignment and will have 2.5 years at the position at the end of it.

After about 10 years consulting...its where I want to be. Of course being paid a ton more also makes me happy. And there are tons of projects like this...just look at the job boards.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.

Anybody else have a desire to bill more hours on a project than you actually work when the project itself is incredibly frustrating? In agency and/or freelance? Because let’s be real, 1 hour of standard work does NOT equal 1 hour of work when someone makes your job incredibly difficult.
