We know that Apple is one of the largest companies in the world. The infrastructure behind the brand is of an unconventional caliber. The executives of the company, those who are in charge of this multinational, they are part of a select group, that of the richest people in the world.
Of the general leadership of Apple, seven of the main executives, not counting the CEO of the North American company, Tim Cook, are awarded with financial prizes or through shares of the stock market americana, or NASDAQ, setting these for objectives.
Thus, we can know, for example, that Phil Schiller, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing, was awarded for his performance at the head of the company in 2014, with a total amount of about $ 10 million in shares (about 87.578 units). Like Eddy Cue, Senior Vice President of Software and Online Services, with a similar sum that same year.
As previously mentioned, Craig Federighi, Senior Vice President of Software Engineering, and Dan riccio, Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering, were also encouraged in a similar plan after achieving predetermined objectives.
And like them, Jeff Williams, Chief of Operations, Bruce sewell, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, and Luca Maestri, CFO of the company, were also included in said incentives.
These awards based on achievement of objectives, is a common practice in companies in the sector. Although it does not stop impacting due to the high figures, it is true that Apple year after year sets increasingly tough targets, and it is logical that after meeting these there are a series of bonuses.
Thus, recent news brought to light have allowed us to know that, for example, Eddy Cue also made a profit of about $ 59 million as part of a prize obtained in 2011. Tim Cook on your side, made a profit of more than $ 65 million by selling shares that were in his possession.
Very high premiums from a company that seems to have no growth ceiling. And there is no better way to continue growing than to keep those who made and are making this possible happy.
