So, digging into this a bit further. He started 35 years ago as an intern - so the contract period that would have given him this incentive is much, much shorter. Muilenburg started as CEO in 2015 and ended in 2019. So that's a 4-year pay gap - seems like a lot now, right? It does - but then I look and see that the performance of Boeing was up 150%, earning $100,000,000,000 ($100 Billion) since he took over - which is $70 Billion over the average S&P gain would've been. So, let's round-up $62.2m to $70m and use the $70B figure - He earned a 0.1% return of the stock value gain. (Almost half that if taking the other figures). No idea what the actual contract was - but that seems entirely reasonable to me. Not to mention it was awarded in stock, so the value stays in the company anyhow; especially when I'm sure there's some sort of wait period or other limits on selling the shares.
