@project managers, technical project managers, and program managers

How much do you make (highlight between program vs project), how many years experience, what company, and if you are a program manager how did you initially get into program management? (bc I’m struggling to get into program management currently)

I will go first: Project Manager, 90k. I have 2 years of professional experience after my masters.

Associate Project Manager (software) - $93k. Masters degree. 2 years as an Implementation Consultant and 2 years as Associate PM.

Siemens. Fully remote

$120k, 7 years. Placed into program management to implement the ideas I had as a project manager. My job is now more of the setup and design of how a program or PMO should manage resources and technology.

$150k, 10 YOE, got into Program Managerment due to a mix of luck and skill. Joined a rapidly growing company in healthcare, started as a Project Specialist, then Project Analyst, then Project Manager, then Program Manager with promotions happening every 2-3 years. My Managers kept getting promoted and so did I. The hardest jump for me was from Project Analyst to Project Manager (I had to leave my company to get my first Project Manager job). I've been in a Program Manager position for a while now though, looking for my next step

$205k TC - 7yrs total exp

Consultant (business/functional/process) -> Project Manager -> Project Manager (technical)

I’m a recent transplant into the industry coming from Tech. Was hired for my software skills, but I am now doing market research and generating trade ideas as well. Expectation is I will be trading as soon as I get up to speed. My desk (global macro) manages ~$1B. I sort of jumped in without setting expectations on bonus, and I don’t know what to expect / how I should negotiate if PM tried to lowball me (granted we do well this year). Any advice would be appreciated!

I've been noticing a new trend in biglaw passive aggressiveness: Adding a question mark to a non-question when you're following up on something. E.g., "Hi X, just wanted to check in on Y as the client would like to see a draft as soon as possible? When can we expect this?"

And to the people who do this... why?

Hi all! To qualify for an L1A visa, do you have to be a senior manager / executive level or does it work as long as you’re a manager? I just moved out of the US because the H1b lottery didn’t work out for me, and I’m thinking rather than spending 1 or 2 years in my home country and go back as a senior, I’d much rather work here a bit longer, get that manager title, wait a year, and then go back as I think that would be the fastest route to green card..? Any thoughts/advice? I’m from 🇰🇷 :) TYI!!

Discovered major pay difference between myself and two new male hires with equal experience. Asked for a raise and was shot down due to Covid and essentially told they make more (were talking a 30k) bc they don’t have my “other responsibilities” aKa my two kids. I know my productivity is effected by parental responsibility but I don’t feel that alone justifies the difference. I know our billable output isn’t drastically different. Not sure what my next steps should be and welcome any advice.

I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.
