CRN breaks down exactly how much each of Google’s top five highest paid executives were compensated in 2022, which totaled a whopping $350 million.

Google compensated its top five executives approximately $350 million last year, with Google CEO Sundar Pichai representing over half of the total compensation the technology conglomerate paid out in 2022.

The 2022 ratio for Pichai’s total compensation compared to the median Alphabet employee was 808 to 1, according to Google’s filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Mountain View, Calif.-based company had 190,711 employees as of March 31.

Looking at Google’s recent first quarter 2023 financial earnings results, the company generated $69.8 billion in total revenue. This represents an annual growth rate of 3 percent year over year compared to just over $68 billion in first quarter 2022.
