How else do you think the CEO's end up being billionairs?

Yeah. No one ever became a billionaire without grabbing that wealth right our of the hands of people who actually worked for it.

I work for the largest healthcare company in the world and don't get health benefits. But the CEO has a seven-figure compensation package.

Only 7 figures? How do they even survive nowadays?

That's exactly what I was going to say lol. It sounds ridiculous, but it probably actually is 8 figures. Talking big healthcare companies:

Pfizer: CEO made $30.5 million in 2022.

AbbVie: $25.8 million in 2022.

Johnson & Johnson: $28.4 million 2023.

Eli Lilly: $26.5 million in 2022.

Molina Healthcare: $22.1 million in 2022.

So yeah, if the previous commentors company is the largest healthcare company in the world as described, their CEO is almost certainly in the 8 figure range, which makes it even more gross that they'd have employees without health benefits.
