“While the S&P 500 notched a 30% gain in 2013, chief executives saw their compensation packages soar to the eight-figure mark for the first time, with median pay coming in at a cool $10.5 million, up 8.8% from 2012. Stock rewards alone grew 17% on the year, to $4.5 million. Given the 1.3% rise in salary the average U.S. employee received last year, these latest figures should help keep the pay disparity conversation going strong. Of course, there’s also plenty of disparity within the rarefied CEO universe, with a $36.8 million compensation gap between just the top and 10th-highest earners on AP’s list.”
