New York salaries have stagnated from 2019–2022 despite housing increasing 45% in that time period. It’s not that Buc-ees is paying New York money. It’s that New York is paying Buc-ees money.

Yeah I was worried this would come across as tone deaf - I wasn’t downplaying the job they do there. For a place to have the “world’s cleanest bathrooms” it means there’s people keeping those bathrooms clean. And if you’ve ever been to a rest stop, you know damn well that people are barn animals who do unspeakable things.

Partner this with the normal annoyance and stress of a service industry job and managing 100+ employees…yeah that salary isn’t so crazy and that job isn’t so desirable

There is NO WAY that can be real. What’s the catch?

I had the same thought, but Buc-ees isn’t a typical “gas station” it’s a beast and a GM can be managing 100+ employees at a time. But still, it seems absurdly expensive

Anyone from Canada? I’m considering moving but I don’t know what the salaries are like.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?
