average ceo salary in germany
On average, a German CEO at a large company made about $5.9 million in 2013, while U.S. CEOs in the S&P 500 made an average of $12.3 million. Thatâs because U.S. chief executive pay is intimately tied to their companyâs share price through stock option compensation and other forms of equity pay.n the U.S., average annual worker pay is $34,645. A German worker receives $40,223 a year on average. In the U.S., there have been several attempts to close the CEO-worker pay gap through an increase in the minimum wage. The issue has found its way to the ballot box in several states in the 2014 midterm elections.
