Another perfect example of a leader who brought his company to the docks is Jerry Yang of Yahoo! (ironically also one of the founders). After cruelly crumbling the hopes of the company by failing to seal a deal with both Google and Microsoft, Yang, ''fazed'' by criticism, decided to step down. And during his reign at the online major, he drew a total compensation of $688,242 (Forbes). Such is the condition of Yahoo! that now that the Yang has quit the company, the board at Yahoo! will again go back to Microsoft, who will now lay its own terms and conditions.

According to Executive Excess 2008, 15th Annual CEO Compensation Survey, “CEOs in the US, despite the current hard economic times, continue to pocket outlandishly large pay packages. S&P 500 CEOs last year averaged $10.5 million, 344 times the pay of typical American workers. Compensation levels for private investment fund managers soared even further out into the pay stratosphere." Furthermore, top 50 hedge and private equity fund managers averaged $588 million each in 2007, over 19,000 times that of a typical US worker, as per the report. However, the disturbed US economy has caused exasperated investors to express gross disapproval of hefty pay packages along with stock options received by CEOs. The Annual Post Season Report 2008 released by RiskMetrics Group states that, “Executive compensation concerns lead to greater opposition at some firms. At Citigroup, three compensation committee members received over 25% opposition amid investor criticism of the former CEO’s exit package.”
