Trillion dollar question: So, how much did Tim Cook make as Apple CEO in 2020?
Apple is worth trillions of dollars – it is the world’s biggest tech company in terms of revenue and, since January, the most valuable company overall as well. So, it’s quite obvious that the CEO of a company whose brand is a household name would rake in the big bucks.
As per Bloomberg’s Annual Pay Index, CEO Tim Cook raked in a cool $265 million compensation package in 2020, almost double from 2019 when he pocketed $133.7 million. Bloomberg broke down Cook’s compensation into four segments: $3 million in salary, $10.7 million in bonuses, around $1 million in perks, and a whopping $250.3 million in stock awards.
