Hi Guys.

I always wanted to work for Apple. Love the brand, marketing, products, and I get excited talking about it all.

I checked the employment options at their stores.. wow.

Keep in mind this is Australian Dollars..
- $23 per hour for normal retail staff ($15 USD)
- $29 for specialist (assuming Apple Genius) ($19USD)

Being Apple retail staff is literally paying lower than the Australian Retail Award which sits at $26.55.

There’s something to be said about “better working conditions” than other retail stores, and “staff satisfaction” at work etc. But does happiness at work matter when you can barely afford food outside of work?

For reference - Current Apple market cap $4.03 Trillion USD 👀
