How much is Uber's salary?

I studied in America for eight years. It is located in San Francisco. Let me talk about Uber's income and its impact on the basic economy of the city.

Youbu appeared in the United States, that is, in recent years. Uber is not the only one in the industry. LYFT and several other companies have apps with the same organizational structure and similar operation methods. As the lowest-level employee of Uber, the salary of Uber's ordinary driver is actually quite attractive. About $65,438+$08-22 per hour. Drivers who have just entered the business may earn less, because they are not familiar with the route and system, and they can get used to it after half a month. What is the income of $65438+$08-22 per hour in the United States? San Francisco's consumption level and house price rank far ahead in the United States. The legal minimum wage in San Francisco is $65,438+$065,438+$0-$65,438+$02 per hour.

What effect does this rough data have on the whole city? I want to say that Uber is a game changer, which has dealt a great blow to the basic economy of the whole city, especially the collapse of unskilled labor in other industries, which is very fatal. A good friend of mine in the United States runs several Japanese restaurants in San Francisco, and once employed helpers and handymen in the restaurants, with an hourly salary of 12- 15 dollars. Since Uber appeared, several of his helpers have resigned and started Uber. He shook his head and said that the most difficult thing in their industry now is that it is hard to find bottom-level employees. Unless you start a high-tech job, everyone will start UBER. However, the biggest difference between the United States and China in the labor market is that the labor cost is relatively high, which is no longer cheap. Under the run of Uber, my friend's restaurant business is just one of the ordinary industries that need ordinary unskilled workers in millions of cities, and hundreds of other industries have also been equally affected.

So what are their countermeasures? You've thought about it. For restaurants, it is nothing more than closing down, or hiring employees with high salaries, and then passing this cost on to consumers. So obviously, some restaurants survived, some closed down, and those that survived, the food was more expensive. Because no matter any cost in the production process, the final consumer will pay the bill more or less. Look at this effect. As an ordinary citizen, I went out to eat today and found it expensive when I checked out. Tomorrow, you go to the supermarket to buy food and find that the price of vegetables has gone up. The day after tomorrow, you went to the dry cleaners and found that the number of dry cleaning of the same clothes also increased ... Do you still think that the emergence of Uber is a good thing, or is it only the traditional taxi industry that has an impact and is only convenient for yourself? Many citizens supported Uber at first because they thought the price of taxis was much cheaper than when there were only taxis, but it was not.

Because Uber drivers have a low threshold, anyone can be a driver as long as you have a car. This is hardly a threshold in the United States. In the United States, a country where there are no cars and each family owns several cars on average, cars are basic household appliances, and driving with a driver's license is also the most basic survival skill. Generally speaking, American children can drive when they are teenagers. So basically, as long as you want to be a famous step driver, you won't encounter too many obstacles. Another observation is that Uber has promoted the hybrid of gasoline and electricity and the sales of low-end cars in Japan.

Because of the increase of Uber drivers, many people know that part of Uber drivers' income needs to be used to pay for their own gas, so a fuel-efficient car has become an effective production tool to save money. For example, a cheap hybrid car like Toyota Prius has become the favorite of Uber drivers. To sum up, as the most common Uber driver, the salary is actually ok. Compared with other labor-intensive industries, as a cashier in McDonald's, you only need 15 USD per hour for standing all day. Many cashiers in McDonald's in American cities can't meet this salary standard. Although Uber needs to pay part of the cost of gas and car depreciation, it is still very attractive to many bottom workers, because Uber is actually a good way to make friends, get familiar with the city and earn money at the same time. However, the shortcomings are obvious and there is no career development prospect.

My bank is a trained accountant. If I had just graduated from college and worked as an ordinary accountant, my salary might not be as high as that of Uber driver at first. But as an accountant, I am training and cultivating my professional skills, which is helpful for future appreciation and promotion. As an Uber driver, I can only be a driver all the time. It is hopeless to be promoted from Uber driver to middle and high level of Uber company. I see many people talking about Uber executives and China on this issue. Since we are in the United States, let's talk about our personal feelings about UBER as an ordinary American resident.
