Top-paid non-CEOs
Top-paid non-CEOs — pay packages fit for a CEO
|
Amazon.com's Sebastian Gunningham, who was hired last year from First Data Utilities to oversee seller services, had a pay package fit for a CEO. Valued at $15.6 million, Gunningham's 2007 pay would have ranked him second among Northwest CEOs, behind James Voelker at InfoSpace and just ahead of Clearwire's Benjamin Wolff. Amazon set Gunningham's initial annual salary at $150,000, plus paid him $1.1 million as part of a signing bonus and gave him restricted stock worth more than $14 million. Here are the Northwest's five top-paid non-CEOs. |
