In 2011 Satoru Iwata took a pay cut to the tune of $350,000 and the board took 20-30% cuts so that they didn't have to lay people off at Nintendo.

In 2017 Bobby Kotick reportedly earned somewhere around $30m. He reported record earnings for Activision in 2018. Cut 800 jobs.

...I mean I feel like this is partly a Japan/US difference thing
Exacerangutan
from what I gather from other people, anyway, a lot of Japanese companies bend over backward to avoid layoffs, and see the employee-company relationship as a two-way street of responsibiliy >_>
Exacerangutan
whereas in the US it's more "you owe us everything, we owe you only what we think you'd probably sue us for and win anyway"

I was always taught you should distrust communism for this shit
Pumpqueen Fall
But yeah I'm definitely -- I hate Klepek but he's right, a union would SERIOUSLY be a bigger help right now than ANY sort of "not"
Exacerangutan
you should distrust narrow, insulated, opaque collections of power for this reason
Exacerangutan
communism as practiced historically (which I say because I can't think of anything fundamental to communism that dictates the structure of government) tends to strongly support exactly that, but so does any other sort of unchecked corporatism
Pumpqueen Fall
yes
Exacerangutan
.......which tbh I always thought was super non-Marxist but
