Jared’s Answer, CareerVillage.org Team

Frank Rondeau posted a really great answer to a similar question over at https://www.careervillage.org/questions/20542/how-much-does-a-chef-make-a-year-with-a-culinary-degree-without-one. Here's the relevant section of his post:

"From a monetary standpoint, prep cooks typically earn minimum wage, line cooks a bit more. Sous Chefs vary depending on the market, but major cities will usually have Sous Chef pay rates in the $40,000 range. Fine Dining concepts always pay better, and experience sous chefs in full service fine dining should be making $50,000 to $60,000, potentially more if its a great (and busy brand). Chef de cuisine or Kitchen Manager roles would be in the $60s. Executive Chef salaries vary wildly by concept. Typically $60k is the starting, $75k to $85k would be average, and the best restaurants will pay for talent above $100k. "

Jared, CareerVillage.org Team recommends the following next steps:

Take 1 afternoon to put together a financial plan for yourself as a chef that shows your cost of living in the place you plan to live (you can find sample budgets online, or you can ask here for help coming up with a budget), and then put in your salary as a chef. Make it balance by reducing your costs if needed, and then decide if you are ok with and excited about that plan!

Increased demand for healthier and higher quality meals will provide professional chefs with 10-percent job growth between 2016 and 2026, notes the BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics). Job prospects and competition vary by work environment and professional background.
According to May 2017 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, professional chefs earn an average wage of $49,650, with most earning between $25,020 and $78,570. Job title, establishment, location and experience have an impact on actual pay.
