Every PM I've ever met has been a loser who has failed in their primary desired career and then made the switch to project management. I have no respect for PMs whatsoever.


Ouch! So who will do the work of the PM in the team? The engineers?


It's not a real job. It can be rotated, the same way scrum master can be rotated. Or it can be eliminated entirely. Sorry your job is a lie. McDonald's is always hiring, if you don't have any skills.


Ah right. I suppose by that same logic software engineering might not be a real job soon either. Maybe companies will realise that expensive, emotionally immature engineers can be rotated and just replaced by AI. Maybe the ex-PMs will be the ones controlling the AI since they were paid less than the engineers. Wendy’s is always hiring so you’ll be alright
