In-N-Out Managers Make $160,000 A Year (Plus Free Double-Doubles?)

Once upon a time a burger flipper was a pejorative, signaling you had reached your career potential as a minimum-wage fast food slinger. But The California Sun, a daily newsletter from a former New York Times staffer, alerts us that employees at cult West Coast burger purveyors In-N-Out are raking in the beef: Annual salaries of its restaurant managers are upward of $160,000.

In-N-Out has a history of treating its employees well—paying them above the minimum wage, with health insurance and 401k benefits. It was named No. 4 on a Glassdoor list of best places to work in 2018, one place above Google. And, lest we not mention, In-N-Out really is one helluva cheeseburger.
