I am not typically one to downplay workers’ rights violations, but this article does seem to be blowing this out of proportion.
Reportedly, the complaint in question was filed by an unknown number of NoA employee(s) who claimed they were prevented from organizing/unionizing in an unknown way. Very little information is given on that particular subject.
The article then attempts to tie this back to a 2022 wrongful termination lawsuit filed by a former employee. She claimed she was fired for mentioning unionization in Doug Bowser’s presence (and Nintendo was found culpable to the tune of $26,000). If these kinds of issues were as prevalent as the article’s tone would indicate, I’m certain they would have more plentiful and recent examples.
Regardless, I’m certain that these complaints are valid. Even the very best employers make efforts to prevent unionization. However, by the vast majority of firsthand accounts, Nintendo is an excellent employer. I don’t know that I would put much stock in this story just yet.
