According to Nintendo's annual report published earlier this week, only 4.2% of company managers in Japan are women. This is a number that has remained unchanged since 2021, when the company formed its 'Nintendo Women and Allies' initiative, pledging to "promote women’s careers"

I don't think its fair to look at the overall percentage. Instead, we should look into how many new managers got appointed and how many of these were woman. If that remains unchanged too, then it's fair to complain.

I did a quick google and found a Japanese study that said the average tenure for an employee in Japan is 11 years.

op it's going to take time for anyone to leave.

Exactly this. When I lived in Japan I worked with some employees that have literally been in that same position longer than I've been alive (men and women).

It's going to be a while.
