You understand that you don't actually have to live in Manhattan if your career goal is to work in a fast food joint, right?
Contrived hypotheticals don't actually address the issue under discussion.
- Kerrick 4y agoThere are, in fact, fast food restaurants in Manhattan.
- throwaway049 4y agoAnyone know if they pay better than ones elsewhere? Or what other things enable them to recruit staff?
- Turing_Machine 4y agoGlassdoor.com suggests that McDonald's in NYC pays crew members and cashiers about $36-37k/year and managers around $129k/year. The national minimum wage of $7.25/hour works out to about $12k/year, so that's about three times as much. New York State has a higher minimum wage, $14.20/hour. That works out to about $24k/year, so NYC McDonalds is still paying considerably more.
- throwaway049 4y agoWow. For contrast, central London McDonalds is paying about 10 GBP per hour for crew - which is the UK legal minimum wage and as of today equivalent to 12 USD.
