RALEIGH – One of the real eye-openers about Apple’s decision to build a $1 billion campus in the Triangle is the average salaries the tech giant will be paying, rising to an average of more than $187,000 a year after three years. That amount not only is close to triple the average Wake County wage of some $64,000 but also nearly double that of what current Apple workers make on average.
The minimum wage isn’t something to sneeze at, either: $168,301, both figures coming from the agreement for more than $800 million in tax incentives signed with the state of North Carolina.
Add to that fact the cost of living is much lower in the RTP area than in Silicon Valley and you have some Apple workers as well as outsiders preparing to update resumes for a chance to become an Apple Triangle team member.
