You think $750k for a CEO of a "simple" company is high?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes? And by simple I meant in the manner that it's not a competitive company. They aren't there to bring in the AI revolution or invent the next iPhone. Their primary goal is to just keep the servers running, not create record profits for shareholders.

High six figure salaries in general seems foreign to me. A core part of the nordic model is to limit wage gap between high education jobs and low education jobs, so the entire CEO wage structure in the US seems completely backwards.

It may seem foreign, but it is the state of things. $750k/yr for a $100mil non-profit CEO is about average.
