"I don't hate anything about being a project manager. I love working with people, I love the interaction whether it is managing remote teams or in house. I love the challenges and I'm passionate about getting things done and getting the best product to our end users. I feel the most reward when users are happy and teams are happy as they are adding value to their company using the systems I've been involved with."
"Unfortunately, with large organization, I feel that I get silo'ed in a role and cannot utilize my talents to their full potential."
"I love the environment and people and work."
"At this stage in my career, I tend to enjoy development more than management, but if I understand my current job and I feel my role is important, then I'm happy."
"It can be a thankless job. The failure of the project is on the project manager, the success of the project is on the entire team. At least, if you're doing your job right, it is. I love it when it all comes together with a good team in a company that embraces Project Management. I hate it when the company uses Project Management to compensate for weak management."
"It is a great opportunity to lead team efforts in a Six Sigma process environment."
"Not like it used to be, the whole computer industry is becoming a commodity type market. and while there are a few bright spots out there. most end up in their own red tape of other regulations."
"I love getting to know all the people within a project and the challenge to motivating each and every one of them in their own way. I'm proud of my work and deliverables, and welcome feedback, either positive or negative. What I hate about the job is the impact it has on my family life. It is a constant battle."
"When all is great, the team is working in sync, everyone is happy and end results are great. That's a fantasy world :) - That in mind, I hate having to deal with contractors or employees running behind schedule, taking the process off its timeline. I love learning first hand about the newest technology"
"What I like best about my job as an IT Project Manager is the challenge. I really enjoy having the overall responsibility of a project from the concept phase through project closure. Putting together a team and watching them grow and develop over the course of the project is great. There is also an immense satisfaction when the team delivers an end product to the customer which either meets or exceeds their expectations."
"I love the accomplishment that I get from completing a project and seeing how well it is received and how much it improves the lives of my co-workers and/or customers. I also love the sheer variety of projects, technologies, industries and range of complexity that is available. I hate that it can take some time before you really find your preferred niche and that there isn't a clear progression into a leadership (director / management) role from Project Management."
"Good amount of control over department procedures. High amount of responsibilities."
"Compensation at Corelogic was in the range of moderate level pay rate. Corelogic always looks for new tools and techniques to enhance the business performance with their employees' training and career development, and provides chances and direction to move forward in their career. It was always nice to be in a rapidly growing environment where you always learn new things and get a chance to shine."
"I love being project manager because it is very gratifying working with a team of internal and external stakeholders that successfully execute and complete projects on time, on budget and deliver the expected result, service or product."
"This position is a great fit for aggressive, driven individuals who aren't afraid to lay down the law and get results. That being said, getting the results you want is always about maintaining relationships. I try to be of service whenever possible and as proactive as possible. IT Project Management is about the constant presence of speed bumps and road blocks. It's problem solving all the way."
