And why would they, they have no experience. Average Area Manager yearly pay in California is approximately 60,556, which meets the national average. You will run across ams with no ability to manage. Imo the mgmt experience is way more valuable. I have a degree but I also have yrs of mgmt experience. Amazon will hire people just for having a degree in basket weaving. You will find all levels of incompetence in am mgmt. I say this bc after getting in the swing of things and spending a solid two weeks running the show, "I said to myself there is no way in hell I'd do this job for anything less." This is not a job you can spend two years doing. You may even be far more competent than the ops mgr.

You will find out quickly that as the am, you are doing alot more than the ops mgr. I'm my previous career I was the same level of mgmt as an ops mgr. There is alot of reporting and you must make a hundred little decisions a day that greatly effect the outcome of your shift. I just received a formal offer for area manager at amazon- 75k base salary, 20k sign on 1st year, 15k sign on 2nd year, 17 shares of Amazon stock. These numbers represent the median, which is the midpoint of the ranges from our proprietary Total Pay Estimate model and based on salaries collected from our users. There are alot of administrative demands with coaching and feedback. The estimated total pay for a Amazon Area Manager is 68,700 per year in the United States area, with an average salary of 48,820 per year.

I stand for about 10 hours a day and I'm walking close to 8.5 miles a day. It's not too your hair out crazy, but I'm up at 5am everyday and leave work around 6pm. I will say this after being on the job for two months.think long and hard about getting paid 50-75k annual total comp for this job.

So I squeezed alot out of my offer and ended up in six figure land. I had a good job before going to Amazon and I was still employed. Seems like there is a wide variety of comp plans.
