Japanese CEO salaries are famously very low. The Toyota CEO makes about USD 3.5m. There are other C levels that make 3 times what the Toyota CEO earns in direct compensation.
Japanese CEO salaries in general seem to be below USD1m on average.
- aeze 5y agoThose numbers seem so much saner than the US.
- mcv 5y agoStill insane, though. Nobody needs that kind of pay. This is not supply and demand, this is the executive class enriching themselves.
- tornato7 5y agoI disagree, if you're a company raking in $270B a year in revenue, you want the absolute best running it. The Toyota CEO is like 0.001% of the revenue, an extremely small price to pay for the right management.
- krageon 5y ago> Japanese CEO salaries are famously very low. The Toyota CEO makes about USD 3.5m I'm genuinely curious: Do you not see how insane it is that you believe this is low? Earning even a tenth of that would be stratospherically high.
- 2muchcoffeeman 5y agoIt’s all relative. Compared to their western counterparts, these numbers are low.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoToyota is a huge company though. It's nothing like Mozilla. I would imagine there's a lot of responsibility riding on it. And I'd imagine that in Japanese culture badly performing CEOs actually face consequences.
