Daily schedule and pay across the main track

The first five levels demand a heavy schedule of 54 hours per week. You work Monday through Saturday for 9 hours each day, with Sunday as your only day off. Shifts start at 08:00 from level 1 to level 4, and move to 09:00 at level 5. You also earn 0.5 paid days off for each day you work.

Pay grows steadily across the introductory track to reward the long hours. You begin at 972 Simoleons per week at level 1 and reach 5,076 Simoleons per week by level 5. Certain traits and degrees add a percentage bonus to your hourly pay across these first five levels. For example, an honors BS in Biology or Psychology adds 41% to your hourly rate.

Comparing the Apothe-curist and Lifestyle Coaching branches

At level 6, you must pick between the Apothe-curist branch and the Lifestyle Coaching branch. Both branches cut your schedule down from the initial 54 hours and give you two days off per week. Your choice depends on whether you want higher weekly pay or shorter shifts.

Lifestyle Coaching is the highest-paying option, reaching 256 Simoleons per hour and 10,240 Simoleons per week at level 10. You work 40 hours per week across Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Shifts last 8 hours a day, starting at 08:00 at levels 6 and 7, then 07:00 from level 8.

The Apothe-curist branch offers more free time at the top levels, working Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. You work 40 hours per week at levels 6 and 7, then drop to 35 hours at level 8. At level 10, a Master Apothecary works 7 hours a day and earns 8,190 Simoleons per week.

Promotions, demotions, and Naturopath career cheats

When your work performance gets close to the promotion line, you have a 1% base chance for an early promotion. Having the Entrepreneurial trait multiplies this chance by 10, while the Growth Mindset moodlet multiplies it by 5. If your performance hits the bottom line, the base demotion chance is 100%, unless you have the Professional Slacker trait.

If your Sim quits the job, their career level drops by one for every 2 days they stay unemployed. You can also skip the work grind entirely by using cheats in Live mode. Open the cheat console with Ctrl + Shift + C on PC, or Cmd + Shift + C on Mac.

Type testingcheats true first to enable career commands. Enter careers.promote Naturopath to promote your Sim. You can also type careers.add_career Naturopath to join the job, or careers.demote Naturopath to demote your Sim.
