They are paying him 12 dollars an hour plus overtime, and he's one of the leads? You know they have all kinds of high caliber talent applying for a $10 an hour job as a tester.

He's getting ~25k a year, as a Assistant QA Lead. Nothing to brag about or raise a family on but if you are single and have room mates, you're able to get by.
25k as an assist to a lead? I think you are seriously lowballing that, particularly for CoL in Irvine.
He isn't getting over 30k and his lead isn't getting over 40k. Even at 30k they would likely just give him his lead status and then give his lead his Senior Lead title.

Clearly you lack basic reading comprehension. This is all you will get from me until you can "figure it out".

So I was right all along, they are hiring unemployed fry cooks who have been laid off from fast food restaurants to quality test their products.
It all makes sense now.

25,000 divided by 2080 hours is roughly 12 dollars an hour. Is there something I didn't understand about the "He's making roughly 25k a year"?

Your question answers your question.

I call BS cause that is not even a living wage in California. My brother and his wife live in San Jose and crappy, low rent 1 bedroom hovels cost 1k+ per month. California is VERY expensive and their salaries are normally inflated due to this. A fry cook probably does better than this in most parts of lower CA.
What professional would work for those wages anywhere though? I could get those guys a job hauling seismic survey cable for 3 times that amount as well as build a career from it.
