If you figure each engineer costs apple $250,000 a year, that’s the equivalent of 250 engineers. Could you imagine what apple could accomplish with 5 extra engineering departments? In what world is this one guy worth that much?

Are you serious? He’s worth way more than 63m, he’s the best CEO of any company in recent memory. The growth of Apple under Tim Cook will be studied for a long time.

Obviously the best CEO of all time was VOC’s CEO. Other CEOs are pale in comparison and should learn from his revolutionary leadership such as raising private army, monopolizing spice trades, device-and-conquering local kingdoms, and burning local crops to control CV commodities price /s

An engineer costs a lot more than that if they have health and life insurance and any other benefits through the company. Disclaimer - I don’t know if Apple employees have benefits.

If we use our own criteria to evaluate Apple’s success (and wage distribution), then it makes no sense from its very beginning. Just like with any company.

I’m pretty sure that you could use one of those departments to fully automate management. Just go full data-driven and tie salaries to revenue. The engineers can take it from there, they’re plenty smart
