It is crazy that the compensation is not tied to metrics. If Firefox at least kept the market share, that would be OK.

The source doesn't say this isn't tied to metrics. The base salary is only $450k per year [0]. All the rest of the comp is paid out in other ways. I would wager that there are significant compensation thresholds that are tied to metrics (but we, as outsiders, couldn't know what they are or if they are being hit).
