I read it's on average $30 per hour. I have heard of much higher. Anyway, the average Chinese auto worker at BYD makes about $300 per month. https://www.bls.go

- ponector 2y agoI bet US companies are not paying anything near 30$ per hour to the workers of their Mexican factories. Actually they are paying even less than some Chinese companies there. And your link does say byd offered a base salary 300$, with much more as a total compensation.
- wakawaka28 2y agoYes I realized that $300 was the base. But "much more" is like $1000 per month so optimistically about $6 per hour. A while back I heard Boeing had aerospace engineers working abroad (I think in India) for $9/hr. That is probably a good salary for that part of the world. But in the US the same job might pay $100 per hour. Then we also have a different work culture than elsewhere. If you pay foreigners "good money" they might be working at all hours, but US workers demand a reasonable balance.
