Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

The other day on X (Twitter),

You often hear people say, “We deserve fair compensation for our work,” but under the lifetime employment system, it’s common for those with higher salaries to earn less relative to their work, while those with lower salaries earn more relative to their work.
The reason is simple: the company pays new hires even if they can't do the work, while veterans, even if they can do the work, have the portion that would go to new hires taken by the company.

When you bring up this kind of topic with new graduates, they tend to act like they know it all and say things like, “That’s an investment in the future,” don’t they?
But even if the company works hard to develop them, once they become highly sought after, they act as if they’ve achieved it all on their own and say things like, “Now is the time to go somewhere where my abilities will be recognized,” and then they change jobs.
That's just how people are.

What do you all think?

I can't help but agree.

Companies take on the risk of providing everything related to their employees—from helping them obtain certifications to their overall work experience.

That said, the company is also benefiting from that person’s labor, so I think it’s a two-way street.

I think the cost of raising just one person to full maturity is absolutely astronomical.

Even if that person were to get into an accident, it would be the company's responsibility.

So there's no risk to that person at all.

Of course, the company is responsible for all compensation, right?

Companies and employees are in this togetherI really think that's the case.

People often say that a company is its people, don't they?

That's absolutely right—it helps the company, and it provides an environment where employees can work and grow without taking on any risks.

I hope we can work together to gradually build a better environment for each other.

And I want you to develop your own approach within the company.

That’s exactly why I wonder what it’s like to feel like you grew up all on your own.

It seems to me that young people these days are used to a situation where, even as new hires who aren’t yet very skilled, they still earn a decent salary.

That said, we won’t be able to survive unless we adapt to these changes in the times, so,

I’d like to work toward making this a company that’s even more employee-friendly!!

It's because I think, "If it's good for the employees, isn't it good for the company, too?" lol

A company where both the company and its employees benefitLet's aim for it! ^^

See you later.
