Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

Greed

In the past three decades in America executive compensation or pay has risen dramatically beyond what can be explained by changes in firm size, performance, and industry classification. It is the highest in the world in both absolute terms and relative to median salary in the US. It has been criticized not only as excessive, but also for "rewarding failure"—including massive drops in stock price,[9] and much of the national growth in income inequality.

Maximize compensation for a few at the cost to many. How many peoples lives will be negatively affected vs how many people could have been spared if Intel (and most American companies) executives were not compensated grossly?

@uwa exactly. Calling someone else greedy is you showing your own greed.

Being jealous of somebody else because they have more than you is immature. I suggest you stop feeling sorry for yourself, stop whining, and stop playing the victim card. Take charge of your life. Be responsible and self-reliant. Take pleasure in achieving greatness in something. Your life will be FAR better for it and you'll realize that what somebody else makes doesn't affect you one bit.

Are not those that cry that others are greedy, not greedy themselves? Say you want BK to cut his salary to 100k, and the rest be distributed as a mandate by the masses. Who's greedy now? College kids want free education, which in turn requires everyone else to give up something they've earned. Who's being greedy here? If you maintain the original argument, then the goddess of this year's presidential race should be pummeled by her own supporters to distribute the money she made from Wall Street and University speeches (@ $250,000 per), and from the equally obscene money that her and Bill have hoarded through the Clinton Foundation?

I mean, she's down with the average worker..... right??? Right???

I wish that was the problem, because that would be easy to fix. Over upper managers in the company just suck because it probably just too big manage efficiently.

Lots of FAT that they can cut but they protect their own. Sooner or later they will be escorted out the door as well.

You don't get it, Its not just the CEO... take the top 10 Intel executives and include their Stock offerings and bonuses and the amount of compensation they receive is ludicrous. And for what, doing a bang up job of growth and profitability... seeing the future and reacting appropriately? Their vision is cloudy at best, you could do better with a magik 8 Ball.

Give it a rest. Take BK's salary and divide it up for the 100,000 employees and everyone gets what?

$200-300? Don't spend it all in one place.
