Georgia’s highest-paid executives
Median top executive compensation for 2007: $1,744,935.
It’s good to be the boss. The median compensation package for a high-ranking executive at one of Georgia’s top 25 public companies in 2007 was more than 45 times what the average Georgia worker made.
Not surprisingly, most of the 25 highest-paid managers are CEOs. Others hold different titles, and also near the top are some former executives whose pay was boosted by severance packages.
