Dauntless Hunter 01/09/12 9:03:00 PM #43:	I don't see the big deal here. It's Apple's money, they can do what they want with it. Personally (and it sounds like you're the same), I don't care for anything Apple does, so why should this bother me? It's not like they'd do anything else with that money that I would like any better, so why shouldn't they use it to pay this guy? Also, one of the contextual ads I got for this topic was: Apple in 2015? Apple will be bigger than Exxon with or without Steve Jobs. uhh pretty sure it's gonna be "without" -- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] <cite>Dauntless Hunter posted [p:647484] in Steve Jobs...

iGenesis 01/09/12 9:24:00 PM #46:	Some typical Apple salaries, courtesy of Glassdoor: Software Engineer: $103,733 per year Senior Software Development Engineer: $110,333 per year Software Engineering Manager: $138,882 per year Senior Project Manager: $126,667 per year Financial Analyst: $82,156 per year Senior Financial Analyst: $98,729 per year Supply Chain Manager: $116,395 per year Web Developer: $81,686 per year Senior Director: $208,710 So what Apple's board of directors is implying is that a CEO is worth 500X a mid-level engineer and 250X a senior director. Actually, more than that, because he's already guaranteed this amount upfront. If you honestly think CEOs deserve their pay, or they make money proportional to the value they add to their firms, you're a brainwashed, deluded, and ignorant idiot. The real-reason behind ever-increasing executive comp? Corporate board promiscuity, for the lack of a better word. Ever notice how the same people serve on the BODs of multiple Fortune 500 corporations? Bob Iger of Disney oversaw the Pixar acquisition, made Steve Jobs a multi-billionaire, and gave him a free Disney board seat. Now Iger is getting a lucrative Directorship at Apple worth millions of dollars. Favour for favour.
