Corrleation between exec pay and Staffing Strategy, says a new study
It has long been known that there is not much of a link between CEO pay and stock performance. All you need to do is compare the likes of Berkshire Hathaway, where Warren Buffett has always been paid a modest salary, to Yahoo and IBM where Marissa Meyer and Ginni Rometty have been able to walk away with huge pay packets despite lackluster underlying business performance. (Rometty is walking away with $33 million this year, which according to CNBC is less than Microsoft’s Satya Nadella ($18 million), Alphabet’s Larry Page ($1), Apple’s Tim Cook ($9 million) and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos ($2 million).)
