13 CEOs Who Get Paid Shockingly More Than Their Employees
AP Images Walmart's Michael Duke gets paid a lot of money.
An annual list from Payscale compares the ratio of CEO to employee pay for the largest 100 companies as ranked by Fortune last year. (CEO pay is gathered from Fortune's list and includes salary, bonus and profit sharing, but does not include equity.)
The gap is most extreme at Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., where CEO Michael Duke gets paid 1,034 times more than his average worker. This ratio is twice as much as the second company on the list, Target (597:1).
Payscale found that worker satisfaction tends to be low at companies with an extreme CEO-to-worker pay ratio.
