Why is the salary in Dongguan factory so low that many people stay in the factory and don't want to change?

This problem is very realistic, and many people have misunderstandings about factory wages. Let me talk about the real wages in Dongguan and the reasons why they are unwilling to change.

First of all, people in the factory go to work at 3: 0 1, live in the factory and eat in the factory. They have no activity. Even if they go shopping, they go to the pedestrian street. They rarely enter brand stores, do not know about online shopping and know little about fashion. Their life is monotonous, and they have no idea what the world outside the factory is like. Some young people with low education feel better than farming at home, which is a good life.

There is also the actual salary of the factory is not low. For example, in the factories I know in Dongguan, their wages are all above 4,000 yuan, and overtime is added to around 8 pm, even lunch break and meal time are 12 hours, and the real working hours are probably 10 hours. So did they work hard? Of course it's hard, but their income is not low. They also get overtime pay for overtime work. Compared with ordinary white-collar workers, the income difference is not too much. Moreover, they live and eat in factories, which costs less than ordinary white-collar workers.

Besides, there must always be soldiers and generals in this world. If no one wants to work in a factory, then white-collar workers can't survive, and many enterprises have no suppliers. This is a vicious circle. Not all factory workers have the ability to go out and break in. Many people with limited knowledge and skills don't know what kind of job to look for when they leave the factory, so they don't want to leave because life prevents them from leaving.

Therefore, not only in Dongguan, but also in factories in many places, people will always stay because they are used to that kind of life, they can accept that kind of stability, and they have no ambition to change anything.
