What employee in their right mind would be happy with a company cutting there wage, then dropping the price of a product to sell it at a "Loss", and cover that loss with the "wage cuts". Sony Boss: "Yeah I got an idea, Let's cut everyone's wages and bonuses so we can cut $100 off the PS3!!!" Right Minded Sony Employee: "Great stuff... keep the fans happy... we employees don't need to eat." Sony Boss: "Right that does it then. We'll announce the PS3 Price cut 1 week after we reveal the Employee wage cut." |
well to be fair, it's only the management getting a wage cut, everyone else gets a freeze. unless you factor in price inflation (but Japan has deflation, doesn't it?)
Also, they still get bonuses, just less of a bonus.
Not too bad of a deal, it could have been much worse imo.
Like I said earlier, they should do this at the bailed out banks.
