I don’t think companies care. If you’re the CEO of Mozilla for a year without it imploding, you’re looking very experienced compared to some of the applicants that medium-sized Silicon Valley companies, like Dropbox, Evernote and such, will get.
And if Mozilla is only paying you $200k, they’ll consider it an absolute bargain to give you tenfold that.
I mean, they do… the higher my pay goes the less actual work I do (thinking is not actual work). And I keep getting promoted.
It’s dumb as hell but the only answer I’ve come up with is maybe not everyone can do the “stupid monkey shit” (i.e. “Someone get this herd of retarded cats to do literally anything”).
This is predicated on the assumption that a CEOs skill is directly related to their salary.
This may or may not be the case.
