I can't stress this enough - make sure you understand their structure and that it aligns with your goals. 

I think we are reasonable people and are not demanding alot, but its just our luck we havent found any that we are aligned with, hence we ended up not having a PM for this, and we hope to find a good one soon to handle this.Now, for the request.

The service people she aligned me with where the same, and ended up costing me thousands more for the work that was supposed to be done and wasn't.
