Michael Scott is my hero. The state of P.A. owes this man so much. They say that behind every man is a greater woman. Jan is a great woman. He is an equal op employer, just look at who he has working for him. Shame on you for degrading such a great man and the company he works for. The man almost jumped off his own office building to prove a point to his employees. He ran in a charity for a rabies cause. I hope to work for this great man someday, and when I do, I will surely bring this slander to his attention !!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with the weakonomist. CEO’s are currently receiving multiples in all phases of compensation instead of percentages of what they should earn. I do not believe that this issue can ever be resolved however.

I’ve written quite a bit about the issues of CEO compensation. Without linking back to the orginal post on my site, I can say this is pretty much what I’ve come up with:

CEO pay should be tied to the lowest of the low level employees. A 5% raise would require the entire company to get a 5% raise.

As for bonuses, they should be a percentage of salary, not a multiple.

Stock options and awards are perfectly appropriate at this time but should represent no more than 100% of the salary the CEO is earning at that time.

Being a CEO is like being a president of the US. You do it mostly out of love for what you do and who you serve, not for how much money you make.
