I remember seeing interview on TV with a McDonalds worker in Switzerland. She said, They are paid about 35 Euro/hour. and they are happy to work at McDonalds ! One of comments from the reporter was that higher salaries increase the price of BigMac by some cents( I remember that it was about 50cents) due to higher salary comparing to cost of BigMac in US. I wonder, Could this be a way to fix the lack of employees? /s
- gruez 5y ago1. Switzerland is a lot more wealthy than the US 2. The wage of the burger flipper at mcdonalds might not contribute much to the overall price of a big mac, but the wage of the burger flipper plus the wage that was factored into the cost of the ingredients might.
- CydeWeys 5y agoFwiw, when I was there four years ago the meal prices were in the $13-15 range, so quite a bit more than I was used to. But if that makes for a more equitable society, good.
- dilyevsky 5y agoWhere? I still remember that $60 that google gave me for food was barely enough for one meal in zurich ~10 years ago
- Jensson 5y agoThen swiss mcdonalds massively lowered their prices since, you ate at a special mcdonalds or you eat huge meals consisting of many burgers. Or you remember wrong. Last time I ate there a big mac didn't cost more than $7. It is expensive, but not that expensive.
- CydeWeys 5y agoThat would've been in Geneva, with prices similar to Zurich. There's no way you couldn't feed one person on $60.
- dilyevsky 5y agoIf you ever gone to mcdonalds in switzerland you’d know that minimum bill is like $50 (that was still basically at least 50% cheaper than the next inexpensive place I found in Zurich) so I’m not sure that statement about the price is correct.
