Company: Oak View Group

Location: Cleveland, OH

Pay: $8.8 per hour

AI Pay Analysis: An hourly rate of $8.80 for a part-time Bar Back position in Cleveland, OH, appears to be below the industry standard for similar roles. Typically, bar backs in urban areas like Cleveland earn between $10 and $15 per hour, depending on experience and the establishment. Additionally, on a state level, Ohio’s minimum wage as of 2023 is around $9.30, which places the offered rate at a non-competitive level when considering local living costs and the responsibilities of the role.
