Am I underpaid? Working as Assistant Project Manager. TYOE: 3 years. I have MS Industrial Engineering degree, work for a Construction company (General Contractor) in Project Management Department, but I have to do Estimation, Project Administration, Project Co-ordination, Make AIA Contracts, RFIs, Leader and Process Owner if System implemention and also couple of other general work piled on to me. Unfortunately, the Project Owner or stakeholder and the builder is the same person and that work is also piled up on us. The company gives me 20$/hour, Accomodation, in Gulf Shores AL. No mentions for PTOs, no medical benefits, no work from home, no 401k or Roth, no profit sharing. I work 40 hours a week which includes my lunch time(45-60 mins break) in it. I am on F-1 Visa and soon I am going to be on h1b(oct 1st). I have my wife dependent on me. Am I undervalued? What should I do ? #pm #project #projectmanager #workvisa #h1b #underpaid #change #construction

    Yes you are underpaid. You should look to get into a bigger contractor, maybe as a senior PE if needed to get foot in the door. But you should be around double the compensation.
