Let's see where I start to approach the subject.
I made this thread because I wanted to see the opinions about this.
The other day I read on a web that I usually read, an article in which the MAPPA study opened new proposals for hiring staff [I leave the link here, although it is in Spanish] and I see like something good, after all they has many projects in hands, obviously they would need more staff to work.
MAPPA published a tweet on their Twitter account for the staff contract with some data
and on their website
The worst thing is that the article does not even appoint the beneficial
and the people who complain saying
"They join more slaves to exploitation`... lol
Translate some of the things that the website says:
Test period 2 months, employees contracted after the third month
(After the second year, there is an interview and promotion to a full-time employee)
*Some said that MAPPA damages its quality because they allow people who are not yet graduated ... but this gives me to indicate otherwise.
flexible schedule
From 230,543 yen (including 45 overtime considered and 20 hours of additional allocation at midnight)
*If you are an experienced person, we will decide after consultation based on the content of the experience.
*They say that this is a misery, I do not know, but that the people of Latin America say that ... it gives me a little laugh, literal, the average salary of Japan is higher than the first three places in Latin America together.
If someone knows, if things are different, Japan, but I think, with the exception of rentals, everything else is incredibly cheap, even some webs I found [saying an average salary of animators of about $ 1700, this It is clearly superior with more of $ 2100, although it is still PO under the average salary of Japan] Put the price for things that is not current, and it is incredible that people based in these articles, which is already outdated or lying.
[I know that the average salary in Japan is about 2600 dollars]
Monthly traveler pass paid (up to 30,000 yen) [at least 300 dollar]
2 free days a week, annual paid vacations, year-end holiday and new year,
Summer holidays, Sympathy license, Prenatal and postnatal license
Social Security, Social Assistance Pension, Employment Insurance, Travel Subsidy,
Family Subsidy, Periodic Medical Recognition
*Basically a work contract as it should be according to Japan's labor law
I Leave a comment like this:
I gathered several links and answered him but they deleted my comment where some evidence came from as this topic of salaty problems in Japan have more lies than truths in around.
When comparing this with what the aticles that I found everywhere talking about the exploitation of workers in Japanese studies, this does not look like what they say, or their are lying, or have no idea of what their sayd
It is true that many studies hire personnel who work independently without a contract, these people charge for ended work done and are not subject to labor laws, so really there are workers who earn little, but not all studies do this, many studies they make full-time contracts and here is the evidence
In short it is obvious that there is a problem with salaries in animation studios [rather with hours of work] but I feel that these people just wanted to throw shit about Mappa without knowing what they were talking about.
Someone has some source that speaks about studies that contract staff with fixed salaries, I know that some studies do so and do not have bad contracts, once I saw a video talking about the topic in Toei Animation but I lost the link and I do not remember how its called
Also someone has some reliable sources about this problem so that one can be informed correctly, I saw a thread on Twitter talking about this too, it said some interesting things, but I think not everything it said was correct ... Although I also lost that link
but I remember that the salaries that put on are a lot of worse that this
I think that many people are taking this issue as worse than it really is, I want to know what u think of this guys
***Something curious that I want to add is that everyone mentions JC staff as an example of abuse to their workers, all because they produce many animes a year, but with curiosity there is no information about JC staff abusing their workers [or at least I not found nothing], since there are studies like the Mad house, which had a demand for this matter.
It seems that people ignore that JC Staff has more than 200 employees and that is why they can afford to make so many projects every year [and sub hired work for other studies]

I received this answer:
I do not understand why it is supposed to have that I received this answer, the worst thing is that I investigated on the subject and I found many contradictions between this and what other items say about the salary problems in animation studies, as well as the salary data And hours of work are much more exaggerated than those who are seen in this and other contracts I have seen.
