Under his leadership (2015 to now), Google revenues have gone from $75B to $279B, a 272% increase. Google stock was a $30/share and is now at $105/share (250% increase).

That's what he's done.

Just in 2022, revenues were up $23B, so his cut was 1.2% of that.

You can’t look at this stuff in a vacuum. How did Google fare compare to the broader tech market? If they were outperforming before and matching/underperforming after, that’s a wholly different picture.

And 8 years before, it went from 10bn to 75bn. A 750% increase. He slowed down growth by 3x.

As the magnitude increases matching growth rates becomes harder?

Are you asking if that is true?

I’m not a fan of Sundar but I’d be way more pleased as an investor with 200bn growth vs 65bn.
