How much on average did the Hostess bakers earn?

Answer 1

The top pay for a Hostess baker, as of November 16, 2012 (when Hostess filed a motion to close its doors and sell off its assets), was $15.00/hour, or $31,200 per year, without overtime. Whether a baker had worked there for 5 year, or 20 years, that was the top-level of pay.
