      Has bullshit talks with other CEOs and leaders, get performed for, comes up with truly horrendous ideas that hurt the company measurably, and makes really, really bad speeches to the company. At least, that’s what my CEO does.

        Sounds like you have a bad CEO. At five companies I’ve worked at, three CEOs were that bad. One CEO was very good.

      Nothing that’s worth how much some of them are paid.

      Google’s CEO made $226 million. Google has been circling the shitter for years. You could hire like 500 senior engineers with that money. You could do a lot of cool, useful, shit with 500 senior engineers on a project.

        Yes, CEOs are overcompensated, agreed. Doesn’t mean their role in the company is unimportant.
