Relatively insecure. 75% of my coworkers (project managers in a mixed IT/manufacturing environment) have either left and not been replaced or have been laid off in the past 18 months (had 45, now have 10). The good news is that the businesses we support are bitching because there aren't enough PMs to manage all of the current projects underway (never mind the funded projects set to kickoff in Q2). The bad news is that the senior management my organization is dominated by ex-software developers that have little use for the PMO, and little respect for the work project managers do.
