Survey Report 2018

On behalf of Gecko Hospitality, it is our pleasure to present our fourth annual Hospitality

Management Salary Survey Report for 2019. The data collected in our survey is based on

information obtained directly from Restaurant and Hospitality Management Professionals placed

between January 2018 and December 2018.

The survey reveals statistics from over 1800 Restaurant and Hospitality Management

professionals throughout the United States and Canada. The results encompass the most popular

segments and job titles in the industry. Gender, geographic location, turnover, and salary

increases are among the many factors which comprise the details and depth of this survey.

Gecko Hospitality strives to provide the most up-to-date data from our survey to our candidates

and clientele. Gecko Hospitality discovered eye-opening statistics while conducting this year’s

survey. Surprisingly, money was not the number one reason managers left their employer. Having

no room for growth was the number one reason. Managers in this industry are seeking new ways

to grow and showcase their talent.

In 2018, we observed strong salary increases for female managers in many segments. Gecko

Hospitality discovered thirty-two percent of females received a salary increase compared to

twenty-seven percent of males. This has been a consistent trend for the past three years where

females have received more salary increases than males.

Another fascinating discovery was sixty-seven percent of Director of Sales, within the hospitality

segment, did not have a college degree. Instead, these Sales Directors had a significant amount of

hands-on experience within the hospitality field. As a candidate, you can see that employers are

looking for sales professionals who possess quality involvement within the industry rather than a

degree. Employers may also want to be sure they are not disqualifying a talented candidate based

on the education requirements of a four-year degree.

We hope you enjoy the information presented in this survey. On behalf of everyone here at Gecko

Hospitality, we wish you success and prosperity throughout 2019.

Respectfully,

Robert Krzak

President

Gecko Hospitality

Dear Hospitality Professional,

Gecko Hospitality Salary Survey Report 2018 01www.geckohospitality.com

QUICK SERVICE (QSR)Quick service restaurants emphasize speed of service. Operations range from small-scale street vendors with food carts to multi-billion dollar corporations like McDonald's and Pizza Hut. If table seating is available, ordering is not done from the table but from a front counter. Drive-through and take-out service may also be available.

FAST CASUALFast casual restaurants are primarily chain restaurants, such as Chipotle Mexican Grill and Panera Bread. Their average meal ranges from $8 to $15. Fast casual restaurants usually do not offer full table service, but may offer non-disposable plates and cutlery.

FAMILY DININGFamily dining restaurants are full-service restaurants where guests are waited on by a service staff and alcoholic beverages are not served. Average meals range from $9 to $13. Chain examples include: Bob Evans, Perkins, and Cracker Barrel.

CASUAL DININGA casual dining restaurant serves moderately-priced food in a casual atmosphere. The average meal would range from $10 to $20. Casual dining restaurants typically provide table service. Chain examples include: TGI Friday's and Applebee's. Casual dining restaurants often have a full bar with separate bar staff, a larger beer menu and a limited wine menu.

UPSCALE CASUALUpscale casual restaurants are where you’re likely to see a tablecloth, a trained wait staff, and a full bar. The average check is from $25 to $50 per person. Some upscale casual restaurants are Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant, and Burtons Grill.

UPSCALE DININGUpscale dining restaurants pamper guests and have higher prices than other restaurants. You are tended to by more than one server and a sommelier will drop by your table. The best known Upscale dining chain restaurants are Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Morton’s The Steakhouse, and McCormick & Schmick’s.
