Sous Chef

Just wondering what an hourly wage for a decent sous chef is. I understand it would depend on the training, experience, etc. Appreciate your help.

around 12.50-14.50 or you would be better of paying a base salery of 1200.00 every two weeks that will run you 31200.00 every year and you could get 40plus hours out of them each week and not have to worry about over time you can also cut other cook and keep the sous and save you labor

I agree... Most Sous-Chef positions are salary based and are treated as an entry level managment position. Salaries can range from $26,000 to $38,000 annually(depending on the type of place).

The terms "management" or "salaried" do not preclude an employer from paying overtime at the Federally mandated rate. This is a common misconception and is illegal.
