In recent years, an increasing number of Asian workers have come to Romania for jobs in various sectors, particularly in construction and HoReCa. A Reddit post sparked a discussion about the salaries and working conditions of these workers after a Romanian job seeker was mistaken for a Nepalese employee. The individual shared that he received a cooking job offer with a salary of 5,000 lei, including food and accommodation, but requiring 10-hour shifts six days a week. Other users chimed in, revealing that some Asian employees earn up to 5,500 lei net, plus tips, with employers covering housing costs. Despite the decent pay, the long working hours and limited free time were highlighted as significant drawbacks.
