re: Question for Project Managers

A commercial construction project engineer only reports to his PM (typically), and is not paid to a) have an opinion or b) direct anyone on a project unless handing down a message.
So the job title doesn't mean shite except inside that particular company. Basically you are a paper pusher.
Where this title would be a problem is if said "project engineer" were to be using his title to direct others outside of the company when they have no knowledge of what they speak of.
Obviously if you work for an engineering firm a title of "engineer" would be off limits for those without proper certification bc those are the actuall services the company provides.
Construction companies have been using the title project engineer for years and I don't see it changing anytime soon.
