Microsoft boss Satya Nadella will earn a wallet-busting $79.1m (£60.9m) this financial year, up 63 percent on his compensation for 2023.

The huge boost to Nadella's pay in both cash and stock, announced by Microsoft last night, comes after a positive year overall for the company's financial revenues - but a turbulent 12 months for its employees.

2024 has seen two mass layoffs at Microsoft, with 1900 staff laid off in January, before a further 650 Xbox employees were shown the door in September.

Interesting... So according to this ign most of that was awarded in stock. It kind of solidifies the comments about making money for the share holders by cutting costs. Was gonna say would be nice for us peasants to be awarded in stock but then I would feel like crap if I'd get ton of money while others lost their job.
