Managers usually have their own offices. However, they are exposed to the hustle and bustle of food preparation and restaurants are moderately noisy. Managers deal with angry customers and upset employees, which can be stressful. Wages vary with level of training, experience and location. Entry level wages may be lower.
Pay varies widely with the type and size of restaurant.
The managers level of responsibility also has an effect on wages. Most managers receive a salary rather than being paid by the hour. Salaried managers usually receive benefits. These include free meals, health insurance, life insurance, and sick leave. Most managers also receive one to three weeks of paid vacation each year.
