Why is John Legere paid so much?
His TC was over 66 Million in 2018!! I heard he’s a great CEO, but is he really worth this much?
Not sure about linked list, but he pretty much reversed thinking as a carrier in telecom. No contracts, bill credits, cheap upgrades are a few to name.
There is also a thirty day free trial they started recently which is a genius marketing play for t mobile band 71
Oh sorry, didn't notice you're TMobile.
I thought it was over 100mil. Regardless, the man is the highest paid CEO in the northwest and one of the highest in the country. And on that note, the board seems to think that he's worth it considering they signed him a multi-year offer. He's a natural born salesman with really good leadership skills and a huge portion behind the UnCarrier brand.
The vast majority of CEOs are absurdly overpaid. But then so are many of us in tech, just not quite to the same degree. https://www.epi.org/publication/ceo-compensation-2018/
That entire management team is excellent, Legere included. He’s worth it.
No one is worth 66 million.
They are if they generate more than 66M in value for the company/shareholders. Our stock price has more than quadrupled since we went public. Do you think that was just dumb luck?
He brought TMobile back from the brink of death after the AT&T merger was blocked
He is the reason TMO has the iPhone. Past leaders pissed off Apple so much they refused to bring it over for ages. Leger was the one to get them to come over. That alone was a huge value to the company.
It's all stock options.
It’s all about talent demand. There are maybe a handful of CEO that could replace Legere, and they might worth even more
I have zero respect for him & the company due to how I see their employees treat contractors, especially ones from India, who they heavily rely on and treat like 3rd class citizens. Blatant racism, fearmongering, hanging their jobs over their heads. Acting like bullies & getting away with it. And yet, the employees are so steeped in the "un-carrier" kool-aid that they don't even stop to think to themselves, "am I an asshole?", or even, "what impact will this have on my family if the world knew I was this way?" I'm just hoping these contractors rise up one day and sue them.
Fuck the TC, what is his base salary? And more important than that, can he even reverse a linked list? 🍿
