I know this wage sounds alien to many. I wholeheartedly disagree with Apple's wages but for context, Rs 50 - 80 is the price of a full, though street food, meal in many Indian cities.
India simply has cheap food and low costs. I know this personally as I live a fairly low-expense life. But I can not imagine a big co paying these ridiculously low wages. This is exactly why rich get and stay richer. Apple has the means to push partners to keep paying low.
Apple knows what it is doing.
- goda90 6y agoSo $7/month is about ten meals a month then. Sounds like it's not a living wage to me.

- manquer 6y agoThe factory is located near Bangalore. I would challenge you to survive on even double that salary in Bangalore. Also it is not just low pay. Even that has not been paid on time
