Prime Ministers? Parlour Maids? Post Modernists?
I'm going to take a huge leap here and assume Project Manager.

A pretty common abbreviation in tech, the context should have tipped you off.

edit: One startup I worked for that focused on improving federal regulation compliance in the banking sector had a team of 5 project managers, 1 was male. Our product management team was entirely female.

I'm in academia - we don't have project managers (but post-modernists abound).

I couldn't tell, at first, if the last word was supposed to be 'mediocrity' or 'meritocracy'.
