Though your comment made me realize something, compared to most AAA game studios, they’re a select few that have little to no articles about them having the, “mass layoffs, biggest profits ever.” I think they have a low turnover rate over at their company. Granted, could be biases that are not letting me see those things but still.
From what I understand execs at Japanese companies are held accountable a lot more than their American counterparts. Execs will often take a hit to their pay in order to avoid layoffs where most American companies will lay people off to avoid having to pay the execs less.
According to their 2023 financial report the top executives at Nintendo made around 2m$ which is significantly lower than most other gaming companies which probably helps avoid layoffs where
One person profiting while the rest of their colleagues suffer for it would be quite frowned upon in Japan, its culture is largely focused around supporting the collective. It's much more shameful for an executive to take more than what would be considered their due at the expense of those under them. If they got caught for it at least.
