6 Jobs In & Around Montreal With Salaries As High As $100,000
In the immortal words of Canadian rapper Jelleestone, "money can't buy me happiness, but I'm happiest when I can buy what I want, anytime that I want, get high when I want," and I think that brings up a valid point. The term "living wage" gets thrown around a lot but what does it mean? The legal minimum wage for jobs in Quebec is currently $13.10/hour, or about $25,000 a year.
But is this wage enough to live on? Perhaps. But you won't have much in the way of disposable income after paying for food and housing.
Montreal is less expensive than every other major Canadian city, which is great. But to enjoy the finer things in life, like travel, homeownership, or the occasional fancy meal, it'll help to make a little bit more cash.
Luckily there are a number of companies in Montreal that are hiring for positions right now that pay as much as $100,000 or more.
