Exorbitant executive pay is a sin incapable of restitution wherever it occurs, much more today than at any point in the past. The leaders of nonprofits especially should be ashamed to accept such pay. Developer compensation generally is not exorbitant to nearly the same degree, so this comparison feels unfair.

A competitive dev salary is probably nowhere near being overcompensated, but a multi-million dollar exec salary almost certainly is.
- missedthecue 6y agoI have a feeling you hold this view because personally taking a million dollar salary would not reduce your quality of life. This is not true for all people.
