<strong>PMOLink</strong><br />
<strong>PMOLink</strong>’s founders decided from the company’s<br />
onset that if they were successful, they<br />
wouldn’t be the corporate executive fat cats driving<br />
in fancy cars.<br />
“We wanted to share the wealth. Our top executives<br />
were not going to solely profit off the hard<br />
work of our employees,” said Mark Johnson, chief<br />
financial officer and co-founder of <strong>PMOLink</strong>,<br />
along with President and CEO Geoff Hingle.<br />
“Every employee has a vested interest in this<br />
company and gets their deserved share of the<br />
pool,” Johnson said. “All of our profits go back to<br />
the salaries and benefits for our employees.”<br />
The average salary is often the wow factor at<br />
the project and process management professional<br />
services company, which began operations in<br />
2001.<br />
The company’s average starting salary is<br />
$84,000, while the median is $108,761. <strong>PMOLink</strong><br />
reported $11 million in revenue in 2008.<br />
“It means we’re doing well as a company, and<br />
most of our employees are certified in the project<br />
management solutions they provide to our<br />
clients,” Johnson said. “We’re in the business of<br />
attracting a high-quality work force, so our salary<br />
and benefits packages have to be competitive.”<br />
<strong>PMOLink</strong>, which also has an office in San<br />
Antonio and a subsidiary in <strong>PMOLink</strong><br />
Government Solutions Inc., serves clients in the<br />
United States and Canada, including six Fortune<br />
500 companies.<br />
Because of constant upgrades and complex<br />
project management software programs in the<br />
industry, Johnson said <strong>PMOLink</strong> gives employees<br />
$1,500 annually for training, professional certifications<br />
and online classes, plus additional assistance<br />
upon request. There is a $1,500 bonus for<br />
