I think there must be some sort of mistake. Warren Buffett is the CEO of berkshire hathaway, and I’m sure he makes way more than the stated 5:1…

Berkshire is a holding company, most of the employees work for subsidiaries.
We’re just allowed to post hit lists now? Nice.
To think I’d only need to double my income to be rich beyond what I can consume on my own as opposed to barely scraping by. And now the average CEO makes 100x that. Anybody feeling like going Postal?
yes
This seems to be saying that AirBnB workers are getting nearly$300k per annum. I call bullshit.
The CEO pay is hilariously misrepresented as well. The Airbnb CEO might not get a huge salary compared to some of the others but he gets monstrous pay packages. He got $120 million in bonuses and stocks alone a few years ago.
Same goes for all CEOs. They typically wrap an ass ton of their “income” into bonuses and stocks options.
Notably this list is S&P 500 which is a stock market tracker, so it does not include any privately traded companies.
Does it include cleaners? Most offices seem to hire external companies so don’t hire cleaners themselves, or any of the “menial” jobs required to have a functioning office. Might hide much worse jobs
Needs a few more pixels. Can’t read shit.
It’s all blurry gramps, can you upload a higher res image?
Shit on mine, too
another great hit list

Be cognizant of the impact of ratios at work here, Google’s parent company Alphabet looks pretty good with only 29:1, but that is because its median worker pay is so high comparatively. I’m also seeing Accenture on the “naughty” list at 1526:1 but that could be because Accenture has a significant employee base in lower income countries (such as India) while its CEO is in a high income country. It may not be indicative of equal standards of living for where each resides.

Aptiv is another global company that drives that ratio really high by using labor in developing countries wherever possible. That shouldn’t exempt them though, because in order to get hired in their developed country locations you effectively need a relevant PhD or an MBA and connections. Just because the labor they are exploiting is foreign does not mean they are not exploiting labor.
