The CEO is making an inordinate amount of money. $6.9 million is excessive.
You can argue that Mozilla should be held to the same low standard as every other corporation, but if you do that, you have to take into account that the Mozilla CEO got a huge pay raise in a year where other CEOs got less money.
$6.9MM is a perfectly reasonable compensation package for a $500MM organization and is probably low to attract a significant number of quality candidates.
Just no. My CEO runs a much larger organisation than Mozilla corp and her salary is 1m€ per year (public information), and that's perfectly adequate.
Perfectly adequate to never attract quality talent for the role.
Yeah I don’t think we should so directly equate quality of an expert with quantity of money.
A $2 million raise just made the CEO worse at running Mozilla. Honestly, if you think the company should hemorrhage money that rapidly, who's the one that hates it?
