Project management professionals in Tennessee might find themselves singing Memphis blues on payday. The state ranks low in nearly every field and in almost every city, with a few exceptions. Industrial production managers make slightly over the national average salary in Chattanooga, Kingsport, and Cleveland, earning between $90,000 and $92,000. Construction managers are some of the lowest-paid PMPs, particularly in Morristown where they earn $45,000 on average. Nashville wages are low across the board, most notably for transportation, storage, and distribution managers, who make a median salary of about $53,000.
