Do human resource managers make good money or are they not paid as much as other Business fields?

Yes you can make a lot of money if you are working for a large organisation, with a good brand name, if not then no.\nHuman resource business is same as any other business..sometime peak and sometime low..depends on the demand and supply of labour...

Women make better HR managers, while men are better when it comes to areas like finance.

I heard that management makes a ton of money there - like close to 6 figures.  Maybe it's just a rumor but if that's the path your offer could lead to it might be worth looking into.

I am a financial planner. The hours are long and yes, it is very difficult to acquire new clients. Most job opportunities are commission-only. If you do not go into this field with a sales mindset, you are not likely to make a great deal of money.\nI love what I do, and if I measure success in terms of how I have helped people, I am very successful indeed. But because I am not aggressive, not a sales-orientated person, and not willing to work 70 hours per week, I am not making as much money as I did before.

In all industries, as well professions like law and medicine, there are plenty of experienced personnel from whom to choose - and these are very much a Buyers' market, where the employers have a clear-cut idea [based on their own past experiences] of how much a candidate deserves.\n...But IT is a relatively new field - and very few have any worthwhile experience. And so many new IT firms are sprouting-up each day - launched by totally inexperienced owners !\n...They too hope to get some of the 'best brains' that are available - and offer large pay-packets that match [or come close to] those offered by IT market leaders, in the hope of attracting the right candidates. So, it becomes a Sellers' marketplace !\n...But all these 'new' employers get are mostly 'freshers', and they have little choice but to appoint them - and pay them whatever they had advertised they would.\nSome of the 'freshers' are indeed bright - and as they are keen to keep on drawing their fancy salaries, they work overtime to hone their skills and make-up for their lack of experience through their extra-enthusiasm. \nAnd as returns in the 'trade' are extremely high, the owners are often forced to pay these 'bright ones' even more - to make sure that they don't leave !\nSo, it seems [to onlookers only !] that the IT salaries are huge : But the price [in terms of an absence of any personal life, very little mental rest, and physical ailments caused by constantly sitting before their PCs and staring at their screens] the employees pay for these, is no less either !\nOne last comment : For the few who succeed and rise, there are many who (a) prove unable to generate the quantity and quality of work-output that is expected, (b) ruin their health by blowing-up their fancy salaries on all the usual vices and turn unproductive, or (c) turn 'too big for their breeches' by trying to throw their non-existant 'weight' around. \nThese guys and gals find themselves 'out' even before they could get really 'in' !

They do make a lot of money, but it does sound boring to sit in front of a desk all day adding up stuff. But I guess it depends on who you are...some people might not find it boring.

Hmmm. you are trying to IM in the personals, aren't you?\n\nI'm a manager in a travel agency. My career is steady with an annual salary of $200,000. My family life is happy as well, life has been rather fulfilling. Sigh...my friends are not here yet. These people! Still the same old bad habit, love to get all decked up, I guess I'll just keep waiting....

For the most part, massage therapists arent salaried.  They get a percentage of the fee the client is paying. On the low end it is usually 50/50.  ok is 60/40.  If you can get 70/30 you are doing pretty good.  The problem isnt the money.....the challenge is getting the clients.  Once you can overcome that...you are home free.

it really differs. Mostly, it'll be an executive management position, typically the CEO, CFO, or some other chief exec position. Think the CEO of Microsoft, Apple, etc. they get paid a lot.\n\nIf you're looking for something not so quite far reaching, the regional management positions pay well too. Like being the VP of operations of the south. \n\nIf you're looking for a 9-5 job that pays pretty well, i'd say be a doctor. the training takes a while, but the payoff in the end is pretty good.\n\nso really, it depends on what you want to do. i say pick your job based on what you enjoy, and not how much it pays. remember, this is your life you're making a decision about. Why get stuck doing something boring or that you dont like?

I should think it would be considerable, especially in retail trades, where turnover is so high.  I know I have made application to the human resources department of a major department store, and been told I was OVER qualified (as an experienced legal secretary), even though I had never worked in that field.  I think if you go to the larger department stores or chain supermarkets or discount marts, they would be happy to have someone with little more than a high school diploma, good recommendations, and a willingness to work up from the bottom.  Should be worth a try, anyway.\n\nIf you were to try to get formal education, I suppose you would want to combine classes in the business administration department and the psychology department.  Those seem to be the two most important areas for human resources work.  I doubt whether there is a formal degree in human resources, but if there is, one of the other answerers is bound to correct me.

I knew a manager that made 25,000 thousand a year but she'd worked at the restaurant from age 16 to age 23 which is when she was promoted to manager. There are teachers, unfortunately, who make that much and less. In todays cost of living scenario 25,000 dollars just isn't that much money unless you have no children and no costly financial demands.

Hourly salaries are usually less well-paying overall than salaried positions, and are  usually not entitled to receive the full range of benefits that salaried positions command.  On the other hand, most salaried positions do not include overtime pay, which hourly work almost always does include.

Managers do management jobs (getting things done via & with people with lowest cost possible), something people have to learn to perform.\n\nSome are born with several qualities of a good manager (leadership, eloquence, appearance...) but they never make a real manager until professionally trained & "battle tested".\n\nAll managers are made.

Most HR managers haven't a clue what would make a good employee.  I would expect they view as essential qualities they are lacking in themselves - good customer focus, efficiency and a genuine desire to help people.

It depends on what others with the same amount of experience, talent and seniority are earning in the same industry.\n\nPeople seem to forget that their employers are not required to cover their lifestyle expenses or student loans - thay are required to pay a wage or salary in return for services provided.  If you can't afford to work for this gallery, find another.

temps don't typically get raises, but if you would, it should be based on your performance or company % rates. The company I work for is usually 15% of your pay.
