    I think being a PM is a great job. I am surprised to see where it’s ranked though. All the jobs with specific benefits (noted by the colour code) are lower down on the ranking. So if I understand it correctly, the PM has the following attributes, thus placing it at #5:

    * PMs did well during the recession
    * factors such as current employment, long-term growth, and pay and security were all above the norm
    * interviews with PMs indicated a correlation with the position and quality of life factors such as flexibility, stress and personal satisfaction

    Given the potential for projects to go awry I’m surprised the factors measured yielded so many positive results! That must mean PMs are pretty resilient too! :-)
