Cove Shoe Factory -
Piece rate, with minimum wage guaranteed ($3.35 per hour), as soon as you reached $4.50 per hour on what you could do, they did a time study, and reset the rate so you made less, or changed your job to something you could not do. Miss one day of work without a doctors note and you are fired, you get the job by being in the lobby holding an aplication when someone misses a day of work.
I don't imagine it has changed much, so it is good to know that the US has and supports it's own sweat shops (biggest customer is the government making boots for the military)
