IT industry, at this time, is facing a lot of issues, leading to the salaries at entry level going down the hill. However, the CEOs from the IT industry have had no effect of this, since they are still earning several hundreds to a thousand times the salaries that a middle employee gets, says an ET report.

The shareholders at TCS and Infosys have already begun questioning the payments of these CEOs, which as per them are very high. The highest salary is taken home by Infosys CEO Vishal Sikka, and Infosys also has the highest CEO compensation in comparison to median employee remuneration, which is 935.38 times.

In comparison, Wipro's CEO is paid the least, and the company has the lowest ratio of CEO compensation to employee remuneration (260.19 times).

For several years now, the starting salaries of IT entrants have been within the Rs 2.5-3.5-lakh per annum, which has forced some companies to hire B.Sc and a few arts graduates who can support IT people, so that they can continue maintaining low salaries at the bottom of the pyramid.
