At a lot of companies, the project manager is the first line of defense against a late project, it's their job to harass their people to move quicker, otherwise they are often the first to be on the chopping block if things don't go smoothly. It's their job to fire ineffective employees when they notice slowdowns or incompetence.
Product Managers don't have to put long hours at work when the schedule they came up with is unreasonable. Engineers have to make adjustments, put long hours to make things work.
Product Managers should be doing better than just shouting in morning status meetings.
