That's an important point. A lot of these places can't find or keep people even when they pay rather well. A few years ago an old neighbor of mine got a job at (I'm pretty sure) UPS and it paid well but the work just wasn't worth it and he quit and took a pay cut to have significantly less stressful job. To be fair he had a pretty bad back that caused him a lot of pain.
