FORD'S CEO COMPENSATION
Oh I know Ford has been very good to its employees but this is pure BS here. And if one looks at the other "higher ups" at Ford their compensation each year is also in the millions.
Human beings. One flawed species and then some. God is spelled M-O-N-E-Y.
2005: FoMoCo put up all the company assets including the rights to the blue oval to procure as 23.8 billion dollar loan to stave off bankruptcy.
Now y'all know why FoMoCo didn't need 'bailout' bucks.
He earned it. He paid attention in school and he has a better job, and makes more money, than the rest of us.
So what's the problem? Are you wanting him to "redistribute" some of his wealth to you?
or...
Human beings. One flawed species and then some. Satan is spelled J-E-A-L-O-U-S-Y, which would seem to be the usual motivation for starting threads such as this one.

Ford's 45,800 UAW workers are receiving a record $8,300 in profit sharing this year, the largest amount a domestic automaker has paid out since profit sharing was introduced in 1983.
Almost half of the workers are in Michigan and will receive their checks March 14.
A revised profit-sharing formula was negotiated as part of Ford's 2011 national contract with the UAW.
The amount is based on North American profits, a simplified formula that is more transparent and easier to calculate. Last year, Ford made $8.3 billion before taxes in North American.
Salaried employees also received bonuses this year, in addition to merit raises that take effect April 1.
I think the corporate World needs to do a whole lot of soul-searching vis-a-vis executive pay and compensation.
Some of the posts hinting that Mulally...and only Mulally.....'saved' Ford is cheerleading B.S. And a company doing 'well' isn't justification for throwing the entire bank at him and saying 'here ya go.......don't spend it all at once'......which is generally how executive compensation is figured (no matter HOW well....or bad....a company does).

Seems like the lowered costs are borne primarily by new hires and not taken away from senior employees.
Ford Says Hourly Labor Costs $8 More Than Nonunion Plants - Bloomberg
Don't get me wrong. Mulallys' compensation is absurdly atmospheric. I just find it refreshing that he does something other than running his company into the ground to earn it.

While Bill Ford was at the helm, the Ford family lost 500 million dollars of their stock value, it sank to a low of two bucks a share.
I remember that only a few years prior, it was over 175 bucks a share.
Nasser started FoMoCo's downward spiral by acquiring Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo, meanwhile neglecting Lincoln/Mercury, Crown Vic, Ranger et al.
Estimates are that FoMoCo lost over TWENTY BILLION DOLLARS on Jaguar alone, it never made one cent of profit. Land Rover made a profit exactly one month during the entire time FoMoCo owned it.
After being 'shopped' for over a year, Jaguar/Land Rover were sold off for peanuts to Tata Motors of India. Chinese autoparts maker Geely Industries bought Volvo, also for peanuts.
Only Aston Martin made a profit for FoMoCo, it was sold to a UK private investment group. Desperate for cash, FoMoCo sold 30% of their investment in Mazda back to Mazda, retaining 3%.
As for the hourly workers, the UAW and Ford agreed to a two tier pay system lowering the entry level hourly pay for new workers while leaving the veteran workers pay alone.
