Twinblade★ 4,213 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) Considering the string of failures EA has had recently, im shocked to see that Wilson is making that much money... Quote Electronic Arts and Activision Blizzard were both called out for having overpaid CEOs in an annual list from As You Sow. As You Sow is a non-profit shareholder advocacy group that publishes a yearly report on the 100 most overpaid CEOs of the S&P 500 Index to call out “excessive compensation.” The organization calculates the overpayment by taking the median pay of an employee at the company and comparing it against the CEO’s pay. Activision Blizzard’s CEO Bobby Kotick’s pay is $28,698,375. This is an overpayment of almost $13 million, according to As You Sow’s estimates. He was the 45th most overpaid CEO on the list. Electronic Arts, Inc. head, Andrew Wilson, is paid $35,728,764. This is about $19.7 million too much, according to As You Sow. Wilson rounded out the end of the list, appearing at number 98.

madmaltese★ 2,814 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 EA still makes soooooo much money with their sports games alone (especially FIFA) that overall they are still extremely successful. Shareholders and financial reports just show everything overall so a failure here or there isn't that huge a deal for them. Link to post Share on other sites
