The average annual salary increase will be 15%.
Sega’s actions would not stop here, They also seek to support workers from different fields, so that each one can develop in their area. and, if you wish, ascend exclusively in that area. This would be a very different action than the one taken by Activision Blizzard in a recent round of questions.
Other companies like Bandai Namco and Capcom have announced a salary increase some time ago. The last to take such action was Nintendo, just earlier this month. This may well be a necessary move by Sega to remain competitive in the Japanese market.
