- SamReidHughes 7y agoIt would be a good idea to limit the comparison to Bay Area companies of that size.
- BrendanEich 7y agoTop few execs made above 800k but not 7 figures when I was there.
- SamReidHughes 7y agoI guess I'm being a pedant about the way one might pursue the line of reasoning of comparing to other companies' pay, not its validity and overall applicability.
- BrendanEich 7y agoMozilla constantly says it is not like “other companies”. We were and are in the Bay Area, which is every year more expensive, but not 3x more. It could be the 2.5m/year is justified, but not by market share up, new revenue lines, or both. What else? Competition? No, it is a custom fit job, chair of both boards and now even acting CEO. No competitive recruiting or chance for others to get the job, no real oversight.
- SamReidHughes 7y agoRight.
