Since when did we start on the job training for CEO's? Then you wonder why some of these fly by night companies have evaporated into thin air. Get serious, a $12 million dollar company is not a $120 million dollar venture. Everything is relative. Maybe it says something about BOD or how inexperienced these charlatans really are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-126852961571725269.post-83497486564759408792010-04-06T13:58:10.154-07:002010-04-06T13:58:10.154-07:0010:24 - A CEO being paid 300K is very reasonable, ...10:24 - A CEO being paid 300K is very reasonable, the CEO that takes no salary probably made it big on another venture and has the flexibility to do that for more equity, and I am sure that the distributor isn't in federal prison for making over 750K but rather because of how he made the money. <br /><br />Small company or big, it is the BOD decision as to how much money a CEO will make. They don't set their own pay scale. If they do, its probably a ma and pa shop and you should run away anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-126852961571725269.post-41751065225667688762010-04-06T10:24:24.646-07:002010-04-06T10:24:24.646-07:006:23 am I know that the CEO of a very small spine...6:23 am I know that the CEO of a very small spine company that had just a "novel" pedicle screw, distributed another company's peek and finally has a cervical plate, was paying himself over 300K... on the other hand, I know that the CEO of another small start up hasn't taken a salary since Jan 2009.

You said "pay themselves salaries that are equivalent to working for a legacy company". Who is making huge salaries to lead these small companies? I am sure that a lot of CEO's for small companies could work for a legacy company as a regional manager and make more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-126852961571725269.post-3196250972412676812010-04-05T19:40:53.308-07:002010-04-05T19:40:53.308-07:00Anonymous 1:58
