So when the CEO of Nintendo cut his salary due to the poor sales of the Wii U and every American tech writer praised him for it, that was just common practice in Japan?
He voluntarily cut his salary in half. That’s more along the lines of taking responsibility than shoring up the company. CEO pay is a tiny percentage of revenue, despite what lemmy thinks. To make a serious dent, pay would have to be cut across all the C suite, and much deeper.

this doesn’t apply to contractors and part-time employees, AFAIK
That was several years ago, so surely the water isn’t that hot. Have they tried bringing it to a rolling boil yet?
