Because of this, managers are (intended to be) paid so well.
- cosmotic 5y agoCan you explain?
- q-big 5y agoIf there are many people who love or can do a job, salaries typically decrease and vice versa (supply and demand). Examples are: - salaries for programmers are lower in game development - the "everybody can program" hype is intended to increase the supply of programmers and thus decrease the salaries - at least in Germany: jobs with a "social feel" like geriatric nurses are paid less, because these people are told that their job satisfies an important social responsibility So, because middle management is so stressing, less people want to do the job, and salaries increase.
- cosmotic 5y agoI'd like to see more evidence that the job is stressful; more than just 'it pays a lot and thus must be hard'.
