I think the more complex aspects of the job are managing dependencies/politics between different groups: sales, marketing, engineering, product etc. and trying to coordinate between them and keep things on track in that way.

But nearly all of that is done online (at least for me) since folks are in different nations and work across time zones. I guess you're right to point out that aspects are complex, assuming that people remain involved to the extent they are currently.

There's also a large portion of the work (status updates, reporting, etc.) that could be automated though in my view. For me and other PMs I know, that's like at least 40% or more of the work.
