[quote=Anonymous]I'm a lawyer with a PMP who mostly works with PMs, and my DH is a PM. A lot of law involves project management. Getting the PMP was not hard and it has helped me a bit. DH really enjoys his job but it doesn't pay as much as law, and he's always overhead never profit center. Right now he is fully remote and travels less than once a year, but in a past job he was in a secure facility all day and traveled a lot. It's typical to have a ton of meetings. You need to be personable and willing to maintain relationships. The most annoying thing about PMing is that you're responsible for the schedule but you can't do much to actually make people meet it. PMs often have a secondary expertise like tech, engineering, food safety. If you are thinking about managing litigation at a firm, that may be its own niche and they may not value a PMP, I don't know. [/quote]
