I assume that on the IRS returns form for Mozilla Foundation, the “related organization” that the CEO of Mozilla Corporation gets 5+ million from is probably Mozilla Corporation. But I don’t know.
Comment on Mozilla CEO Mitchelle Baker stepping down to Executive Chairwoman
frezik@midwest.social 9 months agoSalaries of non-profits are public information. See page 8.
She was taking $5.6M from “related organizations” (not quite sure what that would be), but not much from the Mozilla Foundation itself. The rest of the board is taking $115k-$340k directly from the Foundation.

Those are insane amounts to me, in a non-profit. Non-profit sounds meaningless when considering certain people within the organization are making $340k off of donated money. It’s a mockery of the term in my opinion.
$5.6M is just on a whole separate level though. Speechless.

If you want services and products to compete with private offerings you need talented and competent people who could otherwise work in a for profit business and get a typical salary for that position.
Unfortunately 340k is basically upper middle class household in coastal cities. Mozilla HQ is in Mountain View, the heart of Silicon Valley.
Try buying even a fixer upper is the South Bay and raising two kids on less 300k in Silicon Valley. I’m making close to 200k in the Bay Area and feel like I have no money for extras like home improvements, no kids, 20 year old car, travel on a tight budget once a year for a week or so, and still behind on my retirement goals.

They could move. Bringing jobs to a more deprived area is the sort of thing a charity is supposed to do.

That is insane. What a waste of money, driving up local inflation like that.
