In 2024, Christian Klein, 44, received a €19 million ($19.9 million) bonus, up 165% from the previous year. Eliminating all MOVE SAP and similar programs, limiting bonuses through performance management, reducing yearly salary increments, Project Mongoose, and so on should net him approximately €32 million bonus in 2025. When you compare all of the numbers shared by the CFO and Works Council newsletters in 2023, 2024, and 2025, you get this figure.
I wonder how much he'll actually get this time. Guess we won't know until this information is made public.
What is the supervisory board even doing? Are they also going to make a deal with the board to get good money for being laid off like how the Works Council members did?
