Maybe you're in a place where Product Management (I'm assuming that's what you mean by "PM") is done poorly? If most of what you're doing is project management and coordination, then you're not really doing Product Management. PM work is about knowing your market, knowing your customers and their problems, knowing the tech that can be used to solve those problems, building a strategy to deliver validated solutions to the problems and then delivering the solution, all while considering company and stakeholder goals. It is a incredibly fun, sometimes, incredibly frustrating job.
