The salary and total compensation packages of senior Apple executives are a matter of public record and filed with the SEC.Completely false. I saw on tv that he was paid $1 per minute. Even when he was sleeping. That’s a lot of money dude..
Best post in this entire thread!Removed.
This may be a slight bit of exaggeration. But I get it’s your opinion.Must be nice to earn money on obsolete products & tax evasion.....

We will never know what would have been had Steve Jobs never died.
I do feel that under Steve, the iPhone improved at a glacial pace. It wasn’t until iOS 7 that it became painfully aware just how behind Android iOS was in terms of features and functionality. Apple has done an excellent job closing the gap in the recent years, at the cost of some stability, and I feel it’s a fair trade off overall.
Where I do feel Steve’s presence is sorely missed is the dose of hindsight and common sense he brings to the team. We see Apple making way more mistakes these days, which is probably the downside of there not being someone like Steve standing behind you and telling you what a dumb idea it was. But Apple will learn from their mistakes and eventually get to the same end point; they will just take a little longer and have more bruises to show for it.
Apple is more than one man, and will survive Steve’s passing, and continue to thrive and prosper. That much I am confident of.
And Steve Ballmer didn’t have Jony Ive and his band of merry men either.
It’s a package deal, and they all complement one another to make up for each other’s deficiencies.
Why does Apple need to be revered in the pro world to be considered a success?
Apple isn’t a tech company to begin with. I see Apple as a design company responsible for making technology more personal to the end user. I love my Airpods, my Apple Watch, my Apple Pencil, my iPad Pro.

In B4 all the libs show up to say “No one deserves to make that much money.”
......and that “Fashion” part of the assesory is fading while what’s under the hood decompensates. Tim is a Shareholder Tool.
I look forward to all the Tim Apologists defending Apple when they bring no overseas cash back in 2018 other than to buyback shares to pad the pockets of the shareholders. I am surprised his security costs are not higher. Prolly cause he is in such good shape.![]()
Apple was a better company when it was solely supported by customers who really understood what they did well, during the years they were on the skids. Their success with the same masses who bought a new LG Chocolate every year and now buy a new iPhone every year have inured them to having to resemble anything of their former selves. I want to like Apple. I really do. That's why their financial success saddens me. Because it's a buffer between them and what their old, core customers appreciate. I say this as someone who watched closely as they nearly shuttered and was livestreaming the announcement of Microsoft's $150 million investment in Apple to help them avoid bankruptcy. I wasn't hoping for a financial fall then. But now I would like to see them take a huge hit. The market does not reflect the quality of their software, and I'm not just referring to the recent headline bugs. This has been a long time in the making.
Why is a non religious/political story in the religion/politics section??? It’s also not even a social story.... so... why?
Just curious

Your iGadgets explain why you dont think Apple needs to return to Pro products.![]()

Remember how Jobs only took $1 a year for salary?
Nothing. I'd say it's lumped more under social issues (requiring private flights for security reasons)What’s political about this?
my thoughts exactly. 93k is peanuts! considering his schedule, i expected it to be close to 750-1 mil!His personal air travel expense in 2017 is only $93,109?
