Reply to comment by JPMoney81 in Philips to cut 13% of jobs in safety and profitability drive by 4Wf2n5

Philips lost $1.3 Billion USD last quarter. The CEO's salary is a drop in the bucket compared to how much they need to cut.

$6.7 Million isn't exactly competitive for a CEO of a company of that size. If they cut their salary to $3 Million, the CEO will likely find a job elsewhere, and they'll end up needing to pay several times more to find someone qualified to run the company.

The CEO will work, just for another company willing to pay a more competitive rate
