How much do executives at similarly sized organizations make? Moreover, if you want to cut executive salaries, how do you avoid the "pay peanuts, get monkeys" problem? Mozilla has nearly 1.5B in assets. A cheaper CEO might save you a few million, but cause far more than that in damage to the organization.

Perhaps linking a greater share of pay to success would be a good idea. How about $200,000 + $1 million per percentage of Firefox market share? In recent years, CEO pay has doubled while Firefox appears to be in terminal decline.

It wasn't just doubling (and more) of CEO pay for Mozilla.

They also layed off tons of engineers. While giving the CEO the pay increase the same year.

Absolute trash of a human being and org.

Excellent post about this: https://lunduke.locals.com/post/5053290/mozilla-2023-annual-...

Apparently the rewarding is opposite, to get Mozilla away from Firefox…

A CEO running a non-profit into the ground does not deserve that kind of compensation
