Occupation is in demand.
In business, pay varies based on the amount of responsibility and how long managers have worked for the firm. It also varies by the type, size, and location of the firm. For example, top managers who work for very large corporations usually earn more than those at small companies.
In addition to pay, managers often receive other perks. They may receive company stocks and yearly bonuses. They may be given company cars and expense accounts. Other benefits include paid medical and insurance plans.
