Sweetgreen is implementing a new compensation plan for its restaurant managers, aiming to boost sales by offering higher pay and equity. Under this initiative, managers, referred to as "head coaches," can potentially earn over $200,000 annually through a combination of increased base salary, revenue share bonuses, and company equity, contingent on meeting specific performance targets. This strategy is inspired by successful pay models at competitors like In-N-Out Burger and Raising Cane's, with Sweetgreen betting that improved compensation will lead to higher sales and better profit margins.
