Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone working in food manufacturing in PA, NJ, or NY would be willing to share typical starting salaries for entry level roles or recent graduates (with little to no experience).

I'm interested in hearing about any manufacturing related position, such as QA/QC, R&D, Production, Maintenance, Packaging or other roles.

For small to medium sized companies, what starting salary range do you usually see?

• Is it mostly around $35k-50k?
• Or is $50k+ common for entry level positions?

If you don't mind sharing, it would be helpful to include:

• State (PA, NJ, or NY)
• Company size (small, medium, or large)
• Position
• Starting salary or salary range
• Whether you had internships or prior experience

I'm just trying to get a realistic idea of the current job market for new graduates. Thanks in advance!
