    I can’t tell if they posted his income to say he is paid too much or too little… It’s a weird thing to include, it didn’t seem to fit the article at all.

    Poor guy getting shot at and doesn’t even make a million a year. Absolute tragedy.

      They mention a yearly bonus of around $200k in addition to his $550k/yr salary, but he may very well receive additional bonuses for meeting sales quotas or god knows what else. Not to mention stock options, which are given to every executive as a kind of tax-free additional salary.

      All that to say, I wouldn’t feel too bad for him.
