To and fro the island.

Especially considering that Sony and Nintendo employees are paid roughly 9.23 million ($116,232.40) and 9.14 million ($115,099.10) respectively, SE employees definitely are paid more generously than the rest of the industry.

It's to be observed, however, that these figures are founded strickly on government filing, so the average pay for SE employees may not be as average as the "average" figure portrays. Still, an average like that means that employees are either paid the same or the pay is incredibly top-heavy.

The range and median would tell us a lot more about the salaries. Pretty stupid survey...to use mean when there are outliers.

Problem rule #16?
Square Enix won my respect with one game. Im more of a fan of the "Tales of" series by Namco so I personally dont care for Final Fantasy, however they made what has to be the best Non-Pokemon game (Because if I counted Pokemon my opinion would be way to bi-est) on the nintendo DS

HOLY FUCKEN SHIT THAT GAME WAS AMAZING.

Anyway Square more or less makes quality games and if im correct they got their feet wet in anime too with "Full Metal Alchemist" so it makes sense that they will pay their employees well since they are running some big budget games. Too bad they arent using that money to develop a better fight system for final fantasy e_e
Id love to see what they could do if they designed the fight system to be more like the "Tales of" games...
