> Mozilla now makes most of its almost $600 million in annual revenue from promoting Chrome as the default search engine on its home page. This isn't that rela

  Leaving aside small business, are there (m)any larger organizations where the CEO makes >1% of revenue? Mitchell making $6.9M in cash compensation of a $600M revenue company is the equivalent of: - Chuck Robbins of Cisco making $655M/year - Mark Benioff of Salesforce making $360M/year Maybe let's look smaller: - Fidji Simo of Instacart making $29M/year - Patrick Collison of Stripe making $166M/year When you look at it like that, Baker's compensation is quite absurd. (And for more comedic value than anything serious, similar to Tim Apple making $4.4B/year...)

    Baker is just cashing in. Unlike CEOs who've been on Big Money from the start (or shortly after the start), she has toiled in relative obscurity for a very long time, arguably being severely underpaid for the responsibilities she took on. At some point she stopped believing in the long-term prospect of Mozilla, or in its mission, and decided she would get hers before it was too late. In a way, I humanly sympathise.
