    Id guess its as your basic production line operator, those big intakes they do of anyone who applies every now and then? Asking for someone else...

    The medical company I'm in the operators are on ~35,000 from what I'm told.

    I'm also told that because the company is 24 hr and it is shift work they can expect to be doing "over night" shifts but not paid night hours.

    Just what I could dig up over lunch

    That sounds high.

    I've heard talk from product builders in Boston who were taking home 450-500 per week after tax.

    35,000 for operators?? More around 25,000 I'd say. When I worked as an operator it started around 11 euro an hour and went up after 6 months to around 12.50 an hour.

    Just what I was told over lunch, I wouldn't know many of the operators so couldn't really ask them and can be a bit of a "no-go" area with some people.

    Some of our operators are very skilled and have been in the company for years so could be that I've been informed about the "high-end" operators?

    It could depend on if the operators are given contracts by the medical company which can happen after they are there for a year or two. Where I was, once you were there for a year you were given a contract by the company. Originally for a year and then permanent after that I think..Maybe if that's the case then they would be on better money?
