Probably not ≥30. People in cushier wage jobs in the US tend to get 28 at best (contractors are a different story).How many vacation days do they get though? Anything below 30 days and unlimited sick days is inhumane to me
Yeah, that's not even close to matching inflation. Given that supplies are constrained and the Fed nearly doubled the money supply over the span of a year recently, it's not surprising that average people's buying power is decreasing, in fact I don't think the full effects are being felt yet. Was ready to see $10/gal gasoline in CA, and maybe it's coming.It’s good that they are doing that, but I can’t imagine many urban markets typical of where Apple opens stores where that is a sufficient rate. It doesn’t even match inflation going from $20 to $22.
You do realize that the pressure from unions did that?I strongly prefer this to unionizing. Union crony fat cats don't care about employees. They are just as if not more corrupt than a lot of "evil" corporations.
This is the best case scenario for everyone - unions don't add a layer of corrupt bureaucracy to Apple, and employees get paid fairly. Win-win.
I can only speak for the UK, but over here Union fat cats also earn big bucks. However, it’s not true to say they don’t care about employees; they passionately want better terms and conditions for workers.I strongly prefer this to unionizing.

Wage is only one of the many aspects of employment. While Apple also provides many other benefits, a lot of US companies don’t. Unions play a critical role here.I strongly prefer this to unionizing.

The other stuff is just wage but with extra steps (or restrictions).Wage is only one of the many aspects of employment. While Apple also provides many other benefits, a lot of US companies don’t. Unions play a critical role here.
How about stop increasing prices due to inflation so people are able to purchase one.
That's impossible to tell. $22 seems market rate, and it's only a $2 increase from before. I'd believe it's union pressure if the pay were clearly above market.You do realize that the pressure from unions did that?
For a trillion dollar corporation it’s low-balling, even Panda Express have incentive to pay their workers up to $24 an hour, seen it advertised when I went into one of their restaurants.That's impossible to tell. $22 seems market rate, and it's only a $2 increase from before.

UnlikelyThat is a good starting point. Pay your employees well to lessen the chance for unionization.
How about letting employees decide if they want to join or start a union?I strongly prefer this to unionizing. Union crony fat cats don't care about employees. They are just as if not more corrupt than a lot of "evil" corporations.

Unions are a ponzi scheme. So much money collected in union dues, and only a very small percent ever goes back to the union members. Meanwhile the union bosses have yachts and nice cars. Wonder where they got the money for that…I strongly prefer this to unionizing. Union crony fat cats don't care about employees. They are just as if not more corrupt than a lot of "evil" corporations.

Wow! All the folks here that were health care experts for the last two years are now economics experts.
Interesting - you quoted me - but that wasn't my quote.For a trillion dollar corporation it’s low-balling, even Panda Express have incentive to pay their workers up to $24 an hour, seen it advertised when I went into one of their restaurants.
Apple’s lowest starting hourly wage will be $22 an hour. A fast food restaurant paying “up to $24 an hour” is not paying everyone that. Starting pay at Panda Express is going to be $10-$15 an hour, maybe lower and maybe higher in some locations. No Panda Express in my city is paying a cashier $24 an hour as a new hire.For a trillion dollar corporation it’s low-balling, even Panda Express have incentive to pay their workers up to $24 an hour, seen it advertised when I went into one of their restaurants.

Don’t be too quick to pat Timmy on the back. This will simply be passed down to us through an increase in cost for upcoming devices.
Don't you think Apple will already be charging us as much as they thought the market would bear?Don’t be too quick to pat Timmy on the back. This will simply be passed down to us through an increase in cost for upcoming devices.
