Also, HR Manager is a low-risk job.

Recruiter is the high-risk equivalent.

So not only do you compete with a lot of people for the job, the pay structure does not depend on performance.

Maybe, but I've also seen HR departments be the first to go in lean times.

We effectively didn't have an HR department at my previous job, at a company of 500+ people. And they did when I first started, about a dozen people.
