Total compensation involves more than just salary. As a project manager, you can expect to receive additional benefits from employers, as well. Potential benefits include:

• Travel opportunities: Companies often have multiple locations or work with overseas design and manufacturing partners. PMs are often encouraged to travel to on-site locations related to their projects in the course of their duties.
• Rapid advancement opportunities: Project management is a high-visibility job. PMs that perform well often receive recognition all the way up to the executive team. This can extend beyond a pat on the back to tangible benefits such as salary bonuses and other in-kind compensation.
