A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

“Japan Inc”? Is this just a collective term for Japanese industry?

It’s a term for the intertwined political and capitalist system of Japan.

It’s an old term from the 80s, maybe 70s?

Thankfully now the pay is reflective of what it should have been in the 80s, maybe 70s?
