If you are a lead and you have 3 subordinates that you give tasks to then those would be your direct reports

The interpretation I’ve seen commonly is direct reports are permanent/fixed. If you manage someone on a project those are indirect reports in my eyes.

A couple of them. Not relevant though. That’s the standard definition of a direct report, that you report to them through the HR hierarchy.

Otherwise, what’s the count? However many you’re managing at this current project? Total across all projects? An average?

Here’s what ChatGPT had to say, as a different data point.

I thought indirect were the reports of your reports.

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?
