What's skills do they have when you pay them 475 times more then the Accountants, engineers, programmers, salesmen,etc that are really involve with moving the bottom line?

There are plenty of engineers in this world. What about this engineer is worth 475 times more then the actual employee?

Seeing as he is not doing any engineering work as the CEO.

I meant to say, the skills they have do t justify their pay rate

[CrimsonTider]

CEOs make 475 times more then the average employee.

What skill are these companies paying 1 man that much for?

If y'all can say the workers don't have any skills, I can say the CEO doesn't have any skills.

 

[WaveCapsByOscorp™]

let's face it, they should be getting paid more. you can argue about how much more until you're blue in the face. but the fact is they should be getting more. i'm sure there's a way to figure out how to pay them more...

A burger flipper can get a job at 16 or 17 with absolutely no experience. So now look at the experience the CEO has and look at how wide that gap is in skills and experience. I think you're right though that CEO's in America are overpaid but you can't say this dude doesn't have the skills to pay the bills.
