I’m the only PM in my company. We work with custom automation in Michigan. I’m a recent graduate in mechanical engineering but I have 6+ in business and a degree on it. My question is, is 60k too little? Some of my friends are telling me that I was lowballed.

Thats the bottom end of our Jr. PM rate. (Midwest agency, not Chicago)

Thank you. Really valuable information. Which industry are you in ?

Bottom line, if you feel you are being lowballed - then you are. Doesn’t matter what anyone else has to say. Do your research, know your worth, and demand it. You decide your value and the employer agrees, not the other way around.

Thank you. Yeah I do feel. I will try to negotiate in a few weeks. The research part is the one I don’t get, I feel that info from Glassdoor or other similar places are not a reflection of reality and I do not know any other PM’s in the industry. Nevertheless I will try dig for information and network more in that aspect.

I would say it’s low for your industry but okay for a JR PM in marketing. I make 115k with maybe 8 years of marketing PM work but 12 years of overall experience. I also freelance and charge $75/hr

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
