AI Pay Analysis: To provide an accurate analysis of the hourly rate for a Cook in Milford, MI, I would need the specific hourly rate you have in mind. However, generally speaking, as of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the hourly wage for Cooks in Michigan typically ranges from $14 to $18, depending on experience, establishment (fast food, casual dining, etc.), and location. To determine if the rate is competitive, it should be compared against this general range and consider local living costs and demand for culinary workers in the area. If the provided rate falls within this range or slightly exceeds it, it is likely competitive and aligns well with industry standards; if it’s significantly lower, it may be less attractive to potential candidates.
