@noodles227: With all due respect but I strongly agree to disagree here, mate! Considering that CEO‘s or C-suite Execs in general rake in 8-digit annual salaries like i.e. (additional bonus not yet accounted for), alone 3-4 of these C-suits like i.e. CEO, CFO, CTO, CFU etc. would amount closely or even exceed your previous median annual salary calculation! 🤔

While we‘re at it > what kind of ‚talent‘ are you referring to here, please? Not sure I can follow, but I don‘t see weak leadership, greed, zero empathy for employees or utter incompetence as ‚talent‘! 🧐

Instead they should react by reading the economical signs right ahead of the time; what else is the purpose of all analysis, market forecasts BS or even employing god-awful consulting firms, whom they pay a fortune, to let them dictate/explain to you how to run your business?! Instead of brainwashing everyone, only to look good for the media/the customers!

Believe me, I‘ve worked with quite a few ‚top of their fields‘ as you see them and I can tell you from a human being perspective, not many of them I‘d consider a decent person! The arrogance and hubris…so disgusting! They look ar their employees like a means to an end, with the sole purpose to male them (C-Execs) look good by delivering results, so they can give themselves a pat at their back and shine in front of their board and shareholders! Utterly disgusting bunch of people, but of course there is no rule without an exception once in a while! 😅
