    Of interest to Project Managers - has this come true?

    I saw this article written in 2006 about the rates that PMs would be able to achieve in 2008/9. Well it's 2008 now so did it come true?

    I don't think so.

    Nor does jobstats.
    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

      No. The credit crunch killed it. Shame...

        Up until recently decent PM's in finance could get £600+ a day. It's rare now, and depends on having niche skills in particular industries.

        EDIT: I'm aware that's stating the bleeding obvious slightly!

          I still see most PM contracts up for between £400 and £500 per day. Not bad, but not amazing either.
          Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.
