re: Question for Project Managers

Working in interior commercial/healthcare construction, it took me a little under 5 years to get promoted to PM. I started working as a superintendent out of college, and had a stint as a project engineer.
With that said, my promotion came as the result of switching companies. Had I not left, I would probably have been stuck in the PE role for another couple years.
However, if you're going into ground up commercial work, you will be in the office/field/project engineer for years and won't get bumped to PM until you have 10+ years on the job.
ETA: To answer your last question, from day 1 to now, I've had a little over a 50% bump in salary.
