I find this kind of BS. The boss at my Japanese company drove to work in the company car and parked in the company parking garage while the rest of us plebs suffer on our 80 minute commute. Yu Suzuki had 5 fancy sports cars while his underlings who worked 120hr weeks to actually create and ship the products he took credit for got paid $30k-$40k a year. Conversely, while the CEO of my USA employer gets paid crazy money he pays his employees 3x to 6x the equivalent Japanese employee.

But is your executive characteristic? I do think they have a seniority bias (young people suffer while more senior people have it easy) though. Jack Dorsey used to take the BART as Twitter CEO (probably doesn’t anymore) but I would not describe that as characteristic behavior. The wealth gap despite what you say is still objectively better than it is in the US. CEOs will always still be paid more.
