The Boeing Co.’s Jim McNerney is the tenth highest paid chief executive in the country, according to a Wall Street Journal study.
Boeing paid McNerney $16.8 million in total compensation last year. But that’s chump change compared to the $52.2 million Occidental Petroleum paid its CEO Ray R. Irani last year.
The second highest paid CEO, Disney’s Robert Iger, didn’t even make half of Irani’s total compensation, bringing in $20.8 million.
The publication looked at the compensation of 200 of the nation’s top companies.
