They list direct deposit as a "benefit." My adjusted gross income is so low that my children qualify for medicaid and we supplement our income with food stamps and government assistance programs. Their annual raises are not given to everyone and they don't give cost of living increases to adjust for inflation. The work you are required to do is exactly the same as government employees who make $30k more annually than you and have benefits that can support a family. The company prefers to hire younger individuals with less education and no experience so they can pay them less which leads to longer training periods and higher turnover.
