Things are looking pretty good if you are a legacy hire, salaried middle manager at one of these modern day zaibatsu.
For most others not so much.

Most Japanese won’t see a thing.
in fact, I know of a large local company employing hundreds of staff with a bonus this summer-pay rises absolutely not.

I should have written ‘no bonuses’ in the above comment

Where, which companies?? Please, where is the article contents? I call totally BS this. I work here in Japan for 20 years, and the salaries are actually getting lower than they used to by pre Corona actually.
Just ask those doing Translating jobs or freelance in IT. Not to mention, the real salaries which are getting lower and lower by month.

This is BS. Most companies, specially corporations only increase salaries once a year, April. I've been hearing these kind of news in this site every few weeks for months now. If true, salaries would've been in the millions by now.
