I think it's gross to pay the CEO a high salary if you're asking people for donations, but Mozilla isn't; they're self-funded. So if they want to blow all that money on their CEO, I guess it's their call.
- luckylion 6y agohttps://donate.mozilla.org/ https://donate.mozilla.org/ They are asking for donations.
- Vinnl 6y agoThe foundation is, but I think the high CEO pay is paid for from the corporation's budget, which is self-funded.
- freshsqueeze 6y agoThe current CEO used to be head of the foundation and board, so she was receiving $1M+ a year already, paid with those donations.

- pseudalopex 6y agoIt says "paid only by related for-profit".
- sp332 6y agoOh right, thanks!
- mercer 6y agosure as hell keeps me from funding them though. We don't need more overpaid CEOs.
- thotsBgone 6y agoCompanies need good CEOs to lead them in a good direction, and good CEOs want money.
- _28jh 6y agoYet somehow it seems like Mozilla is going in a worse direction than ever.
- thatguy0900 6y agoI'm sure people would care far less about ceo pay if they felt Firefox was headed in a good direction
- banachtarski 6y agoYou're not wrong, but the contention here is that bad CEOs also want money and by all metrics, the Mozilla ship is going in the wrong direction.
