It's a colorful chart/graph that I had a hard time figuring out. I find it interesting the dynamics of the chart because business support companies make up the center while it seems that around them are more monopolistic companies.
This is interesting but I think it leaves out a lot of major companies like FB, Google, Oracle, etc. The CEO's of these companies and many other ones have moved to a $1 dollar salary, as they prefer to be compensated in other forms (e.g. stock options). I wonder what the same statistics for those companies would look like.
I agree with the above comments. If you look at the bubbles, you might see that Warren Buffet and Berkshire Hathaway are a pretty small one. Buffet has consistently been one of the richest persons in the world but according to this graph the statistic is only 9:1. Clearly something is being left out in this infographic, though it is still interesting.

ReplyDeleteI agree with Sanjay--how they account for compensation is unclear, but it appears they only include base salary.
ReplyDeleteI found it surprising how little (relatively speaking) the pay gap was in financials.

ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting chart, comparing this ratio is something I haven't seen before.
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting graph but i also found it a bit difficult to understand because it has been simp lied too much.
