"Foxconn has been subject to a lot of criticism as of late for questionable practices involving children at its China factories as well as difficult working conditions. Bloomberg says a visit to Foxconn's India factories has revealed "no visible sign of sweat-shop conditions" and that workers are mostly complaining about the repetitive nature of their job. Still, the pay is a paltry $130 per month which keeps these workers just above the extreme poverty line. Chances are the next iPhone you buy will be made by Indian women that have few other opportunities to choose from".
Nice to see Indians getting some honest work. Maybe it will keep them off our phones claiming they're from Microsoft and telling us our computers are infected.
Or will the women work for Foxconn, while the men still man their posts at India's scam call centers?
