> an auto plant employee in the US would max out there salary around $50 or $60k/year with overtime That's definitely wrong. GM has said its average hourly worker earns around $90,000 in wages, overtime and profit sharing. The only workers who can reach that level are skilled trades, about 15% of the workforce, the UAW said. In-progression and temp workers earn much less. However, a GM spokesman countered that skilled trades workers earn up to $123,000 annually, including profit sharing and overtime but not benefits. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/2019/09/27/gm-strike-mary-barra-pay-uaw-wages/3776066002/ https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/2019/09/27/gm-strike-...
