Programmers always scold the project manager. They have many people and there is no way. They shout in the crowd and the project manager must take good care of the programmers! How to take good care of it? It's hard to think about love. The more you give him a good face, the less he knows who he is and pays attention to everything. This is the most difficult thing to grasp.

The leaders of the Project Manager care about their subordinates and understand their abilities, weaknesses, personalities, and psychology. They spend eight hours a day on a team of more than a dozen people, and the project manager is not an eight-claw fish, it's not a psychologist. How much can it do.

Can a Project Manager dismiss a person? No. Can you select a team? No. Can you ask the company to raise salaries for key members? No. (Many people will not take this salary increase as a mandatory part of Project Manager management. I think it's a nonsense. Is it possible that the salary structure is the company's upper-level building and cannot be shaken, mao Yu, a backbone of our company with strong capabilities, worked very hard in a project and suffered a lot. After the end, the company took the initiative to increase him by 200 yuan, he thought it was an insult, it was bye, too failed)

If there is more communication between the project members or the internal contradictions of the people during the project progress, we need to engage in activities. Please eat, and the company will not subsidize, when talking to me, the boss always says that he wants to invite them for dinner and sing K. I want to smoke him. Once or twice, I don't want to do anything more. I can't be a fake and generous person. The most failed thing is to see me invite others to dinner, but not invite me to dinner.

The project members asked me to have time to study and read books at work. I think it's a nonsense. I can't keep myself alone. Are you reading books? I have not read a book for a long time, and I cannot remember it clearly.

Who has not been forced by the progress, and there are several people who can do well? The Project Manager cannot beat programmers after being scolded, please have dinner.

Some people say that the project manager should have the backbone, dare to say no, but there are a few. Besides, it is not easy for the company to pick up a ticket, you launched a beta version for another year and a half, and you were also scolded by the customer.

I think everyone should tell the truth about their projects, their own companies, and do not talk about what they can see in the books. They should be open-minded and let everyone analyze it.

My general analysis of the current situation of our company members (including myself) is as follows. There may be subjective elements:

1. I don't agree with the company's development. If you want to leave without doing anything, he will pick up the bag and leave without any preference;

2. be keen on technology, have a certain software engineering foundation, be able to participate in project management decision-making, and be able to give a reasonable schedule for their Assignment Tasks (such people are really few, there are many forums, and in reality few, it's a blue-collar Society );

3. Ordinary people can only write code. For other people's affairs, they are not highly involved and do not want to do more work. At nine o'clock, they leave at six o'clock (too much );

4. You cannot give a reasonable estimate and timetable for your tasks. If you want him to make an estimate, it is often postponed. At this time, you need to help him, if the delay occurs, you need to help him solve the problem, criticize and accuse him, complain, and fail to solve any problem. (There are many project managers talking about the progress. After breaking down the task, let the members estimate the progress. Isn't that true? He doesn't know what to estimate !) ;

5. If you have difficulties or do not say anything, just put them there and do not reflect them. If there is a requirement or design error, you will know it is wrong, click the wrong button. (There are not many such people, of course, who will be unlucky );

6. Some people cannot complete their tasks, and there are always a lot of reasons. If you want to criticize him, he will be able to return ten sentences, and he will be bored;

7. If a person who lacks team spirit makes a mistake, he or she will yell at him or laugh at him if he or she does not. It's funny. If you make a mistake, you will be concealed. If you are afraid that others will point out your mistakes, you will not be able to admit that you have made mistakes, and your blushing neck will not be enough. Project Manager alliance and project management problems.

8. People who just graduated have a clever mind and have a poor foundation. If they know something, they don't know how cool and cool they are. Even though the code function has been implemented, it is similar to the stool, I want to vomit after reading it. No team spirit, no value (the company's salary is not high, only such people, need to work hard to train );

9. The legendary Project Manager: a project manager who knows his shortcomings, is not big, is not arrogant, and is really doing project management, managers who can really understand and control the entire project process (very few, even the basic skills are not solid, but the layout is not good all day long, the color is not good, the class name is not in line with the specifications, after the programmer finishes, he thinks it is done. All day, he will only ask how long it takes for you to complete this function, and how much time it takes for the function to complete. The programmer will say nine days in his chest, it takes nine days for him to pat his chest on the top. It does not take nine days. No one can tell. After nine days, it won't be done, except for continuing to do so)

It is concluded that a development team of high quality and with extraordinary centripetal force can only appear in the legend.

As a PM in a company, what can be done is very limited. Who can shake the corporate culture of a company? Let's say something in the company of the 10th employee, can someone give you a deep look? Besides, if the company does not develop, it cannot develop on its own. Therefore, it is only necessary to leave and look for Party organizations. When can we find the Party organization?
