They’re saying they’d rather have had the money that went towards the purchases of switch 2s left in the form of cash, rather than spent for them.
It’s a relevant critique because with their latest releases, Nintendo’s doing the same ‘cost increase to the detriment of employees and customers’ dance as the other big gaming corpos.
A person can agree something is better than the horrible baseline, and still bring up a topic of discussion on something that isn’t great.
Also, re: 2 weeks paid time off; look outside of 'Murica once in a while. The global average of paid days off is ~25. So 2 weeks, while lovely for America, is below normal.
Not American. Also, assumed that was on top of the ones from the contract. Being forced to use 10 days of my vacation time when they want me to isn’t much of a bonus.
And yeah, I guess being given the option of cash vs switch would be cool, but when the bonus is 7.5k + 2 weeks off + more bonuses announced for later on, it feels a bit shit to complain about a free switch. Especially when you can just sell it to get the money.
