Outgoing Yahoo chief executive Marissa Mayer will likely get $186m payout | Technology | The Guardian

I find it difficult to believe that a single person’s contribution, out of tens of thousands people in a single team, is worth $386MM for only 5 years effort.

Yahoo’s CEO holds stock, stock options and restricted stock units worth a total of $186m, according to documents sent to shareholders about the Verizon deal. The payoff comes on top of roughly $200m that Mayer has already received in salary and bonuses over her five year tenure.

Personal enrichment at this scale is a serious problem for society as a whole because its a rollback to Victorian-era business & politics where the upper class had all the money and power.
