When was the last time you got a 25%raiseout of nowhere ? Probably not latterly ! Then again , you probably have n’t been grind for half a day at a time in a Chinese iPad manufactory under allegedly godawful work term .
Reuters reports that Foxconn workers are come a pay bump to “ 1,800 yuan per month and could be further raised above 2,200 Mongol dynasty if the worker lead a expert interrogation , ” add that “ pay up three age ago was 900 Mongol dynasty a calendar month . ” So that ’s a middling nice raise , right ? Even if it was granted only after month of continued scrutiny , unfavorable judgment , and general outrage from around the macrocosm .
Except 1,800 Yuan dynasty is about $ 285 , meaning around $ 10 a day , or less than a dollar per time of day . For reference , a six - piece Chicken McNugget cost $ 1.20 in China . Good for Foxconn ( ! / ? ) . [ ReutersviaVentureBeat ]
