@djlink all a US CEO gets from this is "if you hear your employees express fears of being laid off, fire them immediately, as they will not make impressive software anymore"
@djlink Nintendo invest time and energy in their staff. So firing them makes less sense? Compare that to most US/Euro companies... hmm 🤔 I suspect somewhere in a Japanese mangement manual there is a chapter on how you don't need to be a dick.
@djlink By all accounts I've heard, Satoru Iwata was a darn decent dude, but don't forget cultural / legal systemic effects. It is way harder to fire people in Japan compared to the US.
@djlink he also lowered the salary of employees, but less than his. And Nintendo has raised salaries above inflation this year. This is how you treat employees!
@aenea I saw that news, they want to keep morale up, they have the money for it, good for them, that will bring loyalty and people will wanna do good for them and the company, it's simple.
