Automotive Manufacturing in Guanajuato

[kasugie]

I don't believe Honda will be paying GM-level wages, and it appears the work week will be 50 hours. There will be no shortage of job applicants, however.

While working conditions are comparable to the U.S., wages at call centers in Le?n are low by any standards. But, even then, Philippine start-ups are making a play to offshore this business, by offering better English-speaking workers (compared to Le?n) working for half a bowl of rice, or whatever. I don't believe this will work out, as the Spanish learned and spoken in the Philippines is obviously different than Spanish spoken in the U.S. It may also be a ploy by management of the call centers in Le?n to get their people working longer hours without overtime or pay increases.
