- Domino's is the world's largest pizza chain, beating out Pizza Hut in sales over the last five years. To keep ahead of competition and a labor shortage, the chain has introduced robots and machines to make pizza dough. Domino's new technology mirrors a growing automation trend across the fast food industry. It's sped up production and replaced jobs that are tough on workers' bodies.
We went inside Domino's newest dough-making center to see how all the latest automation is being put to the test ahead of the biggest pizza holiday: the Super Bowl.

How Domino's Became The World's Biggest Pizza Chain | Big Business | Insider - Věda a technologie
Missed the biggest reason people left those jobs. They don't pay enough for bare minimum food, water, shelter, and amenities needed to live in most areas. No one has a problem working, just a problem with employers who intentionally pay them less than what is needed to live.
I work at Domino’s and you’re 100% right. At most someone will make $2000 a month and that’s grinding every day or closing at least 4 days a week but managers try and keep driver hours at about 20 hours a week. Insiders dont have it much better and make significantly less unless ur a manager but even then the drivers can out make a GM but that’s a grind. Overall Domino’s can keep it’s pizzas so cheap because it pays everyone shit wages
Why should they when you can hire illegals to fill in those slots. We'd have a lot higher wages nation wide if we didn't have an 11million workforce willing to work for pennies driving down wages.
@@its_jawsh6145 If the GM isn't achieving high enough metrics to get their performance bonus, drivers easily make more money.
These business landlords have to be stopped. it's the workers who do the work not the piece of paper that says they own the profits.
They mentioned it in the first few minutes of the video, but did not really touch on it. I agree, it needs to be expanded upon. Thats a an Insider Business problem in general though..... clickbait "educational" videos that do nothing more than fill a gap in the algorithm lol
Imagine that, low wage, high stress jobs are having worker shortages and moving to automation
Yeah hmmm weird
And look at that, better production since the change
@@IAmTheGlovenor What's your point? If they paid their workers right and had enough employees, they wouldn't have issues with production. This video acts like the job is too tough, no. No one wants to work for pennies.
@@aj83009 They're being paid what they're worth, that's the life of a no skilled worker. And sure they wouldn't have issues with production if they still had the same amount of people, but their production has INCREASED since the change. Meaning workers are not as efficient than automation.
Regardless the 7.50 hr starting wage is less than almost any and all jobs available to ppl, in the U.S anyways. Try paying rent and a car note on less than $400 every 2 weeks
Love how they just gloss over the reasons why Domino's in particular struggled to find workers.
Maybe because of the terrible working conditions, them not getting proper breaks or access to amenities and the biggest issue which is that they don't pay their staff enough to actually live.
and now there is like a dozen people running that entire facility..... 2 sides to every coin
and that's because you the buyer is going to complain or buy pizza elsewhere if they increase the price by 50 cents
Thank you for the accurate username.
@@notuxnobux back in 2006 i worked at a pizza hut and they would pay me $2.75 a hour and 75 cents per order. but charge $2.50 delivery charge. and i would take 2-3 orders per run and be gone 20-30mins max. So the made a extra $7-10 a hour extra just from someone else delivering the pizza. and it was my car, gas, repair bill, insurance, and maint.
@@notuxnobuxno it’s because dominoes wants to make the most money possible. In their business model that’s through volume of pizzas sold they could realistically reduce their profit margins but they would rather make the consumer or in this case their workers take on that burden rather than themselves.
Having worked as a driver for dominos, i can verify that the reason they are facing a labour shortage is simply because they do not pay enough. Lots of drivers i knew left the chain because they could make more money doing deliveroo or uber eats. That is despite the fact that our store would earn the franchise rediculous amounts of money as we were always busy. Our managers would give out free food to employees all the time and still keep well below the weekly budget.
Hi, I am doing some research work on Dominos and would like to know your views on the company and your work. Please let me know how we can do that. Would appreciate a lot.
@@krushiparekhI use to deliver for them. They pay horrible. Not much else too it. Drivers get basically minimum wage while in store, and when out on a delivery they drop our pay to like $5.50 an hour because we are “getting tipped while delivering” Stopped doing it when I realized how much more I can make doing UberEats. I make twice the amount in half the time. With whatever hours I want. Lunch break whenever I want. No washing dishes and no sweeping and mopping the floor. I don’t get why people even still deliver for that company.
@@krushiparekh Have you working on Dominos already past this 7 months?
"we can't hire enough people" is corpo-speak for "our pay is really shit but we'll try anything else first"
They'll try to reduce costs whenever and wherever feasible. It's just the way it is. What's feasible depends on the company It's not too different from how you'd pay for some service.. You try to pay as little as needed to get the quality that you need.
@@anonymouseniller6688 Sure, and you get what you pay for. If you pay peanuts, you get squirrels. If they have trouble hiring people maybe they should reevaluate where they’re willing to spend cash.
@@anonymouseniller6688 They don't try to "pay as little as needed to get the quality that you need". They engineer out as much of the quality as possible, and deliver the lowest quality product people can be tricked into paying for, and it's easy to trick people to buy junk food when all the rest of their options are also crap. Paying people as little as possible is just business as usual, and it's not really related to the economics of making the "food".
It's a job regardless.. u rather make something or scratch your butt at home without a single dime in your pocket??
@@sopamarucha2388 that’s completely beside the point and is a really dumb way to look at it dude, try using your brain
In at least 4 Domino's restaurants I know of in the UK, no one gets a break ever. I've worked 13 hours driving on the road and not had a single break. It seemed to be common in my area (Lancashire, particularly the Preston store), and then my friend who lived in Cornwall also did not get breaks.
There's a reason there's labour shortages. They are breaking the law daily, in many stores, and probably more in the country
Should contact a labour board. That is criminal.
These businesses deserve to fail though. I can't imagine complaining about dominoes while likely eating it
@@Tomcos22 kq9
Lol driving for dominos is a constant break quit ur bitchin
@@Tomcos22 All domino's do it. They will simply say the drivers have the option of taking a break every time they go on a delivery, ignoring that they time them.
This is insane that it's come to this.. I remember back in the day at a pizza job, slicing off a hunk of dough and nailing the weight needed first try 👌 these people will never get that satisfaction 🤣🤣
Lies again? Dallas Bull S**t
Diabeetus...Lol
Yeah, that sounds really satisfying 😐
I was a manager at dominos in 2019, I was making 7.25 an hour, and working over 90 hours a week, I was pulling $1200 paychecks every 2 weeks. Most of the time I was working from 7am-4am and have to open so I would either sleep in the office or in the parking lot because the 45 minute drive home just wasn't even worth it. And through the 4 or 5 years I worked there, never once got a lunch break
1. It blows my mind that anywhere still has $7.25 minimum wage. 2. How can they pay a manager minimum wage? You could work anywhere else and make the same wage for less work. I'm pretty sure I made about that as a Domino's driver (plus I got tips) back in 2008.
faaaakkk.. this has to do only because of the country i.e. america
Hey, I am researching on Dominos. your thoughts would be helpful to me. Please let me know how we can speak or have a chat. I would really appreciate your help.

This made me sad and laugh at the same time. Quality comment. Upvote 😄
Came here to just say that smh.
They can relax as they just push buttons on the remote controls of the robots.
Lmfao, that’s the future for you. Employees call in, get sick and get injured. Robots don’t, all you need is IT team members and maintenance
@@darkangelhatesyou As more and more companies go down this route, it will also mean less customers.
in Australia there wasn't exactly a shortage, the staff only did roster the bare minimum so as a driver during this time I had no breaks while on some of the busiest roads in my own car and often had to stay back past my shift while being payed of course, but I never was able to plan anything after because it was an expectation to stay back potentially hours each shift
I’m going through the same thing right now working at domino’s
@@taihunter998 @chilli3529 use it as a chance to either catch up on bills or make plans for when you've had enough and need to get out. The extra money may not be much, but week over week it'll add up right? So let things being a little more boring now to be much better later.
Also in AU, doughs made instore
@Ryan KFC employs kids though, hence why it's customer service ratings are some of the lowest in Aus (or at least in QLD). Honestly lost count of the amount of times I've gotten the wrong order or just shit food in general.
From what I've seen Maccas is the most efficient. Generally because they hire older workers and their systems are designed for speed.
This comment makes me happy that I cancelled a domino's trial shift today and went with papa johns instead

"Dominoes in particular was having a hard time fulfilling these roles that are not super-high paying (she means minimum wage), and are pretty strenuous work (high labor, low wage, zero appreciation)."
I'm sorry but can we take a moment to appreciate the blunt honesty of this person saying "They're a shit company" in nicer words?
No it does not sound like that. In fact it sounds like "These jobs are supposed to be hard work and society has determined that these workera don't deserve more than minimum wage even though the work is clearly beyond the physical capability of one person and we at dominos can't be better than that because then it will eat into our profits. In fact if we do this in one facility, we will have to do it everywhere and that will make us broke".
Any company selling anything cheaply is because some where in the supplychain, some worker is getting skrewed. Not the owner.
Flip side is that the consumer sucks too. If they increase the prices, we lose our loyalty. But I think thats also because we don't know why a company has increased prices. We think we are getting screwed over
Then people likes to pay only cheap food. Crazy.
@@inisipisTV a guy in a hotdog stand makes a better living than a franchise employee and the franchise makes way higher profit margins.
nop, this woman are using fancy words to describe a poor job.
That's the opposite of blunt honesty
I work at the busiest pizza hut in the world in Orland Florida for a year. Most days it was just me and the manager and I'd always have to close the kitchen by myself so the manager could do all the paperwork. Usually had to stay 3 hours past my scheduled time.
I am sorry to heart that. I pray that you find something that suits you better.
Which one? I used to work at the 192 store rt outside animal kingdom
LOL the busiest Pizza Hut in the world has just two people working most days? Thats wild. Did you get paid overtime?
@@teamtoken I only worked three days a week cause I was doing tech college
@cflaquatics international drive by all the hotels
2:26 that's the sweetest threat I've ever heard in my life 😅
Dominoes being the only pizza joint open past 11pm is probably helping them a lot.
i worked at pizza hut in 1991 and our cook got there early every day to start mixing the dough. if i remember correctly, that would be the dough for the evening hours. the previous night shift would have made that day's lunch shift and left it in the proofer over night. while the sauces and toppings were all preshredded/sliced/mixed, the dough was done by hand and i would chop the day shifts worth of salad bar. robots really are replacing humans. but i understand it when people can't come together with a living wage.
Because companies want to be bigger and bigger but they don’t want their employees to also succeed in life.
@@whitepouch0904 actually it's because the employers there don't get paid enough so they made robots to
@@gachaolivia2296 employers don’t get paid enough? I’m pretty sure they won’t continue their business if they don’t profit well
It so crazy that Americans have no idea what GOOD PIZZA really is! Dominos, pizza hut etc are legit the lowest quality around.... Sure, they might taste good (McDonalds taste good too, but its absolutely horrid for your health)... As we get older, health is super important and good, fresh, quality ingredients are key, not GMO cornmeal, GMO (and fake) cheese, etc, days old dough. Poor America.
@@turbokid99 we have real pizza and real Italians in America too lol this is just fast food. Besides pizza hut and dominos are world wide now so it's not just an American thing

Woman with high paying job:
“Stacking boxes can hurt ppl. Let’s get rid of the job! :D”
Ehh.. They try to present it in a positive light. It's not a complete spin though. These jobs were meant to be a temporary/last resort job rather than a career
Thing is people don’t want these jobs, the conditions are laborious and it’ll have high turnover
@@lewis7865 people don’t want them, but many people need them. There are many families fighting to put food on the table who need jobs (Even low paying, boring ones like these)
I agree with you, no-one wants these jobs. But getting rid of these jobs has a bigger impact than many people believe
@@_jamesrayner_you don’t know the impact automating these jobs will have.
I worked as a CSR for Dominos for about 2 years in FL. I gotta tell you, I lived and worked in a Dominos far out west in the suburbs and the store was busy every night and crazy during the weekends, this was about 8 yrs ago.
I was still in high school and my coworkers too. We all worked toguether from Fridays after school til Sunday midnight. I had a bunch of fun and we got free food pretty often.
Dominos is well regulated and good place to work, it’s just that I made minimum wage at the time, and that’s great for a high school kid that I was. But not for a working adult with responsibilities.
As far as the food. Taste is really good. I think quality is overall good. I just wished they used fully organic ingredients. I’d there everyday lol.
Lots of this equipment was created/installed by my old company. Pretty amazing group of people.

@@NJHENDO I specialize more on Mondini machines by Harpak but I see you work on Repak’s as well haha
I worked for Dominos in 1992. I loved the job. I worked 6 hours a shift 3-4 nights per week, got probably $50 in tips, $10 for gas reimbursement, and $5/hour wage per shift. Came out to $90-$100 per night. I only left because I totaled my car twice in accidents. It's amazing how these companies have adjusted to the scale these businesses have been demanded to meet.
so u probably lost money in total for the cars?
@@MrMejh No. It was an old car worth about $1k. Same car was wrecked twice.
@@MrMejh say he would have, it would have made no difference if he delivered pizza’s, egg rolls or drove people around what’s your point? Should we all be pessimistic and give up driving in fear of getting into an accident? How about we ride bikes? You still wouldn’t approve I’m sure, it might get stolen huh?
Bro you're a pretty horrible driver. You need to invest in walking shoes if you want to live long, 120 yrs long

I was a delivery driver for dominos and I was driving a 5.7 Hemi using a lot of gas.. The paychecks were alright I really wasn’t worried about that only because I worked my career job during the car and this was for extra cash.. the tips really helped out a lot and really took care of my gas and a few bills
Because a 5.7 makes sense to be fuel efficient lol

I'm from Latvia - we have a first-ever Domino's Pizza shop open in our Capital - Riga. There was so much hype about it. But when we went and tried their Pizza - it was the pinnacle of MEH.
Why are they so popular?
Americans are unsophisticated.
I think it has something to do with a location. It’s possible that you might have a different experience when you try Domino in USA. I mean like Domino won’t be able to ship everything from USA to Latvia, so the franchise in Latvia has to use anything local In Latvia. I have not eaten Domino’s pizza for more than 20 years. I don’t know if the recipes are the same as before. 🫣
@@deliamak im from Latvia, local pizza is quite good but pricey. Dominos in UK where i live now is overpriced and below average
It's middle of the road pizza. I enjoy it for its price and accessibility. The last part is huge since the US is pretty large (insert fat joke)
They are popular (at least in the US) because they are affordable, have really good delivery, and are located all over. Some people love Dominos, its never my go to. Part of it is that when you grow up with something, you have like a nostalgic love for it. No one I know thinks Dominos is the best pizza (maybe they think its the best chain pizza). But at least in the US, chain pizza is easier to order and is usually alot cheaper.
I grew up doing manual labor. I sorta miss the strenuous work. Didn't have to work out after and felt healthy all the time. Just wish it paid better. If it did I'd be back doing it.
Without hard working Americans like this, we don't get to enjoy the food we like while watching the biggest game every year with our family while they have to work. Hats off to our fast food workers out there. They deserve more
Hard working americans like that industrial mixing bowl? Or like that giant automated ball roller? Personally I'm particularly grateful to the hardworking rubber grabbing machine that moves the balls to the other belt.
@@melhupby i like the texture of the belt they get transported on
Yes, and now as more Americans looses their jobs to robots less Americans are gonna be able to afford to buy food from shit companies like dominos. Boycott dominos

@@melhupbyyou acting like any of that would be functional without humans pressing the buttons lol
I could not ignore the fact during the whole video, that how much jobs have been cut to make these process faster and cost effective.
And it’s still crappy pizza. Actually, I can make pitta bread, tomatoes, and cheese in a toaster oven taste better.
Same thing I thought. Less jobs for a growing population.
@@DaBluBarron1918 america has the lowest unemployment rate since we first walked on the moon. Relax.

Watching it at night. Now I'm craving a pizza.. it looks scrumptious.
There's no love put into machine made food, you'll never taste the sweat and tears put into the hard work a fellow human did in making your food, the emotion they put into it by putting extra topings if they are happy and more sauce if they are sad.
"hand tossed" lol. Granted at the store they probably do actually toss them.
I worked for Sbarro's many years ago and we had to make our own dough, roll and toss it, and for pan let it set up overnight. I miss Sbarro's pizza it was so much better than the other chains but it died in 2008 because of the recession. I mean the majority of stores closed then. I think there are still a few locations.
They didn't die off completely,I ate there in 2019 in Chicago
But same I worked for jet's and we always made dough fresh ...I thought every pizza place did
There's one in Tucson AZ
there’s one in bridgewater nj
I ate at a Sbarro this January here in Asia. It is inside a mall.
usually have locations in the mall
Here in Italy since 20 July 2022 all Domino's pizza restaurants have closed due to bankruptcy. 😂
Apparently, the American-style pizza concept hasn't worked well enough in the country where pizza originated.
Edit: I find incredibly ridiculous the fact that I have to explain this but since people is so fussy and nitpicking about my comment here we are: what I was referring to is the concept and the word “pizza” that has indeed been originated in Italy, yes you can say “flatbread with toppings is from Egypt” or “tomatoes are not native to Italy and without them we cannot speak about pizza” or whatever, but Pizza 🍕 is from Italy, period, that’s all.
Loool, that's like trying to run taco bell in Mexico!

Great video! Very informative.
At least their doughs aren't frozen. I used to work for Pizza Hut a little over 10 years ago and their pizza doughs come frozen. We would take it out from the freezer and put it in a thawing machine which would take about an hour to thaw. I hated Pizza Hut because they were robbing their drivers of the delivery fees. The store would charge $3.50 at the time for delivery and only gave the drivers $1.10 per delivery, but they would make them do two stops and still got $1.10 i stead of $2.20. I was one of their drivers. This is why I hope Pizza Hut fails and shut down permanently.
Pizza Hut might use robots for deliveries soon.
I'm sorry. Yeah these big companies are cheap. I'm nobody but I always tip my drivers at leat 10 in cash. If a big order 20. I rather them having cash in their pocket. I don't trust adding the tip on my card.
@@anonymouszero9422 tipping $10 on even small orders seems crazy to me. good on you though
I never cared that it’s frozen. It’s still better. It’s always soft and well made while dominoes was like cardboard

I haven't had Dominoes in years. I always support my local businesses.
Not gonna lie this feature made me feel good but we can't ignore the bigger picture why Domino's had labor shortages. I agree with the point that automation can be beneficial to repetitive, intensive, demanding, and strenuous tasks but we shouldn't forget that these workers were under-compensated and ill-treated.
i enjoy working at dominos good people at the store i work at. now its my second job moved to a technician field. the fastest pepperoni time i had from scooping it from the tray to finished pizza was 18 seconds. fastest hour on the line was 72 pizzas and 30 sides volunteered for Christmas i was on the line had one person taking orders and the other cutting the pizzas. the busiest day i worked was the Texas freeze. spent 8-9 houses doing topping averaging 135 pizzas an hour the entire time was also pretty fun. i can say machines might be able to match humans on the line. but with a good team the oven is what slows you down.
That chiller is insane
"Companies are having a crisis of not finding employees"
Sounds to me, costs of living got higher, and companies don't wanna pay more
I would be "fine", if wasn't the fact that people higher in the corporation don't usually get pay cuts (at least, not enough in comparison to the "crisis"). If everyone was suffering together, I would "understand", but we know that isn't the case
Yeah it's like me calling a dealership, offering $20000 for a Mercedes, and then complaining about a Mercedes shortage when they say no

I remember working for pizza hut in the 90's. We used to come in every morning and make the dough in restaurant. Now, they come in frozen disks you just put into a pan with oil and let defrost.

If places paid employees what they were worth and we lived in a society that actually looked after people things would be different. Also imo automation doesn't remove the need for humans it changes things but gives opportunity to increase knowledge and focus on other areas that may need things
If you move to North Korea I heard they have a great employment system made for people to live well within their means. You never have to worry about having worse clothes than your peers because you all get two sets of equal clothing. Hurry! They have limited space!
The problem is that not everyone can do every job. That is impossible.
You cannot train a not smart person to do smart things. The person will always run behind the more in the area of expertise gifted person.
It does not remove the need for humans, but it generates a massive shortage. I work in automation and notice that heavily.
In my area you could find dozens of high pay places, but there are not enough people to fill the gaps.
I have tried to train already plenty of people and I noticed that, compared to some with some talent, those will not even reach 10% capacity of the people who can do those jobs thoroughly.
Does this make people bad? No!
It just shows, that people are diverse.

For myself, and a lot of my peers, we worked at McD, Taco Bell, and Retail as a teenage and that was a valuable life lesson for all of us. One day at Taco Bell I remembered this guy explaining how he had 5 different jobs and that scared me, big time. I thought to myself I don't want that for myself or for any of my future family. Dominos Pizza should not be a career option in anyone's life.
@@Dan-di9jd Never mentioned selfworth, but I agree with that statement. It is just off topic.
Selfworth is totally subjective and I for instance try to diminish selfworth.
I myself deem pretty worthless and I am proud and happy to say that I am. There is no shame in it, nor does your own belief change anything except the psyche, if you feel importance for selfworth.
"Worth" is also heavily situational, so pragmatically its a quite useless term to use upon yourself as a punishment or way to nutrition your ego.
The reason, why I am proud and happy about it is that I am alot healthier and, seeing it being a long process to overcome, hard to manage.
Congrats!
Best investment ever holllyyyyy it compares to the amazon warehouses pretty clean and organized/safe easy pizzy
Pay. People. More. And maybe you wouldn't have had such a labor problem. 49.9m could have been spent on higher wages (which they clearly have to make the machine) would have saved them by a ton of money and good people would also be able to have good jobs.
Is there a machine that makes Domino pizzas edible?
🤣🤣🤣 so true!
I bought a pizza that it was undercooked, had liquid from the vegetables on top and the taste just wasnt good. Nastiest pizza ive ever had
Pizza express has had this type of facility for years, The secret recipe by the way is s500 prover which makes stretching the dough in stores a lot easier.
fascinating
Seeing that this distribution center does 300 stores in 5 states makes it all the more clear how dominant Donmino's is in the Netherlands where I work at a store. There are over 300 in the Netherlands. Als the way the deliveries for stores are packaged is the only way I have seen it done here. That should not be a new thing as the way they did before seems so obviously super inefficient. Having a truck spend an hour at a store is horrible.
So cool! I love automation. Automating mind-numbing, dangerous or repetitive work is a good thing.
You surely also think we should live in a moneyless, classless society.
Hey chill I saw one movie where an AI took over so doing this is no bueno...... (I really hate people that think an AI would be interested in taking over the world)
Definitely. It's how we increase productivity exponentially.
And productivity is a crucial determining factor for the standard of living.
Awesome cooking methods
My dad works at the company that makes all the us based and some international store's pizza pans and everything other pan they need.
Love having a blogger tell us how hard actual jobs are 😀
They are actually doing employees a favor by replacing them with robots. Unemployment is so much fun!!!
I dont think its "unemployment". I think it is beng able to work in a meaningfull job. Meaningfull in the sense having a good wage, normal stress and a field you like. If these things are not provided, it is better to be unemployment.
Wait til AI replaces that journalist's job. Then watch her talk.
@@ceooflonelinessinc.267 You realize that many people are not qualified to work at "meaningful" jobs, yes? Many of those jobs require a decent education.
@@nahor88 Off course. I did not deny any if that.
Amazing production for this video! Also, been loving dominos since I was young. This was very educational!
I have my wife pronounced the word pizza several times . . . he absolutely hated it. But he did it for me and that's what I call real love
AMAZING 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
We raced at Pizza Hut too, I can't remember the times but we had intense competitions on busy nights to see who made the fastest pepperoni pizzas!
This is what businesses and corporations want is to eliminate the human aspect and human needs from their labor force until it’s just robots. They don’t want you to socialize at work and they don’t want you calling in sick or taking time off from work, nor do they want to pay you a wage you can live on. You are either a tool to be used or a customer to be price gouged.
It was a cleverly worded narration of how they want to pay low and that is creating issues for them.
Yes I've been working for minimum wage however, the tips equal earning 20-25 dollars an hour. I love the store I work at and love my mgrs too! We are a family and take care of each other. Aloha from Maui!
The problem is not that they will replace the difficult manual jobs, but that they won't invest into increasing the qualification of the workers that will be jobless in the future, in order to for them to be a job in the company. Let's be honest, most of the work is manual work, not that much an office work, there won't be place for everyone if the machines start to replace near 100% of the work.
UBI is how the government will “solve” that problem. It will either be a new form of freedom or slavery. Only time will tell.
Maybe the war against the robots won’t look quite like Terminator but it will definitely still be fought!
None of those workers will switch to a "better job" at the company. That's delusional corporate propaganda, they know it as well as we do. For 20 working class people they fire, they'll hire one engineer or manager and the difference in salary (and productivity) adds onto the profits.
People are going the way of the horses. Developed countries have below replacement birthrates for a reason. Automation decreases the amount of required human labor and humans have to stay in school longer in the credential arms race. The result is that people have kids later if at all and the few kids that are born are subject to the same factors. In a developed country, kids are a terrible investment vehicle and due to child labor laws cannot contribute to the family until after two decades. Thus, in developed nations, the only kids who are born are by parents who actually wanted them despite the cost. By contrast, in developing nations, every extra kid is an extra pair of hands on the farm, sweatshop or etc to bring in money to the family. Just like horses, if the demand for unskilled labor isn't there, people will naturally have less kids due to the credential arms race.
Wonderful. Continue to automate and get those pizzas to us asap.
Excellente question. I’ve never eaten a Domino’s pizza in my life. There’s is one is a range of 230 sq/miles. But from what I’ve seen in this video it doesn’t seem like I’m missing much. But I have friends who swear by it. I’ll be honest, I prefer my pizza hand made or as close to it as possible. As for the ‘choices’ the company made to beat the competition, no real surprise there. I would be shocked if they were generous with their salaries. You can’t be a multi millionaire company by being ‘fair’.
Thats quite incredible
"Attract a lot more talent" 🤔 ... what happens when the robots take over individual franchise operations, and deliveries?
The pizza gets cheaper and Domino's stock goes up, I guess
upskilling in other area
@@mujtabaalam5907 pizza prices get higher lol
Become robot technicians and operators
@@ramoraid Why? If Domino's could increase prices and make more money, they would have done that already?
There's NOTHING cheap about Dominos in the UK! Popular for sure, the pizzas are really tasty, but DAMN every person I ever know only buys Dominos on Tuesdays when they have the deals on haha. I wonder if they don't control the whole supply chain in the UK?
Yeah, Domino's is ridiculously priced in the UK. Every one of my local pizza places offers better quality pizza for less money. Can't dismiss popularity and familiarity though.
Fascinating those driverless cars
Proud to be from Michigan
"Retired" is the hip new slang for "died because they were considered essential workers and caught covid"
I've become more of a Domino's fan this past year. The place I buy from makes the pizza sooooo right. 🤤🍕
Yup, but I only buy on their 50% off deals. Otherwise it's a $40 order for a large. Rediculous prices in New Brunswick, Canada.
@@blaircox1589 It’s $5.99 (US) for a medium 2-topping pizza where I am
In My Country (Malaysia), we dont have many pizza options. Most people here opt to dominos since it the cheapest (one personal pizza here cost RM5 = USD1.1)
🤮
I love this video!
My dad picked up a third part time job as delivery driver at Dominos in the 90s to make a little extra money while my mom was pregnant with me. I only remember him being a GM he worked his way up so fast. I have tons of memories going to the store early in the morning on the day the truck came in. I know I was a little kid but it felt like we were there foreverrrrr.
This was cool to watch and see how technology has changed this little corner of my childhood memories. ❤
I stopped purchasing from Domino's since last year after they ripped me off and don't adhere to their offers so I said goodbye I don't need your pizza's. It sheer convenience really but now I purchase from somewhere else or make homemade I have the choice. I literally can make everything that Domino's has in its shop at home. So grateful to have a Italian uncle who taught me well to cook Italian dishes and the Pandemic helped me with making food again so Domino's has lost out. I don't miss it either.
My names jeff
Bad news: they don’t need you either.
Jesus christ did you ask for their corporate number while u left the business too?
Good for you. You can always make it better yourself.
@@Dan-di9jd they literally do people keep it running
can spend 50 million on a new warehouse but cant just pay employees a decent wage lmfaooo
They're getting a decent wage for their low skill required job
People always want more not as efficient as a machine. Look how much the dough picker machine is a person cant do that.

While taking empty carts and dough trays back to the trailer and removing full trays and carts, driver most move full carts and trays forward repeatedly in order to find space for the empties. Yes, Tetris playing skills are absolutely what the drivers need inorder to complete his or his route in a timely manner which is 14 hours.
I go to Dominos on the regular because it's cheap and better than frozen pizzas. If you build your pizza right, it can be delicious.
I usual pizza from there:
- large hand-tossed w/ no garlic seasoning on the crust.
- Sausage
-Pepperoni
-Tomato chunks
- extra cheese.
In all fairness, these are jobs that should be automated (repetitive, no judgement / knowledge, simple motions, etc). It makes sense that they dont pay much.
For franchises sure. They just seem to be killing the individual owned stores of home made food. Wonder if in the near future anything that's not made by machines will be unaccessible to the masses and out of price point.
@@blaster915 the competition will be fierce.
Worst quality pizza in the world, it’s amazing what people will put up with if it’s perceived to be cheap.
Robots didn’t make it worse tho
