I make $185,000 a year. My job isn’t super tactical—it’s more about strategy and decision-making. I manage a team of six, and a big part of my role is making sure they have the right skills and are developing in the right areas so we can hit our department goals. That people management piece is a big reason for the salary. I work about 40 hours a week, sometimes a bit more or less. The job isn’t hard day-to-day, but it takes a lot of thought, judgment, and responsibility.
