Pffft, look at this loser over here, only making $63 million. Maybe he’ll have to start cutting back on the avocado toast to make ends meet now.

If you figure each engineer costs apple $250,000 a year, that’s the equivalent of 250 engineers. Could you imagine what apple could accomplish with 5 extra engineering departments? In what world is this one guy worth that much?

An engineer costs a lot more than that if they have health and life insurance and any other benefits through the company. Disclaimer - I don’t know if Apple employees have benefits.

fluxion@lemmy.world on 12 Jan 2024 03:47 next collapse

Like, 10% more. Don’t think that really changes the comparison.

abaddon@lemmy.world on 12 Jan 2024 08:36 collapse

250k is probably below the average pay for an Apple engineer, not to mention other costs and benefits. ICT3 numbers (just above entry level SDE) are 230k and ICT4 are 340k. 500k isn’t that difficult at the more competitive software companies located in tier 1 and 2 markets. But yes, CEOs and E levels make far too much for their impact.

Are you serious? He’s worth way more than 63m, he’s the best CEO of any company in recent memory. The growth of Apple under Tim Cook will be studied for a long time.

redcalcium@lemmy.institute on 12 Jan 2024 03:56 next collapse

Obviously the best CEO of all time was VOC’s CEO. Other CEOs are pale in comparison and should learn from his revolutionary leadership such as raising private army, monopolizing spice trades, divide-and-conquering local kingdoms, and burning local crops to control commodities price /s

If we use our own criteria to evaluate Apple’s success (and wage distribution), then it makes no sense from its very beginning. Just like with any company. EDIT: not started by us

I’m pretty sure that you could use one of those departments to fully automate management. Just go full data-driven and tie salaries to revenue. The engineers can take it from there, they’re plenty smart

I tend to exaggerate, but my actual income is just under €12,000 a year. Adult german but can’t work full time for health reasons. But even with a average income here you would rarely go over 25.000€, which is still a joke in comparison what this guy makes.

Here’s the summary for the wikipedia article you mentioned in your comment:

This is the map and list of European countries by monthly average wage (annual divided by 12 months) gross and net income (after taxes) average wages for full-time employees in their local currency and in euros. The chart below reflects the average (mean) wage as reported by various data providers. The salary distribution is right-skewed, therefore more than 50% of people earn less than the average gross salary. Thus, the median figures provided further below might be more representative than averages. These figures will shrink after income tax is applied. In certain countries, actual incomes may exceed those listed in the table due to the existence of grey economies. In some countries, social security, contributions for pensions, public schools, and health are included in these taxes.

True. I grew up in the Netherlands where things are similar but now live in New Zealand. The highest tax bracket in NZ is the lowest tax bracket in the Netherlands.

It will be very difficult for me to go back and pay huge taxes again, knowing that despite the taxes healthcare isn’t free there and corporations getting so many tax incentives. it feels like the burden is unfairly placed on individuals.
