Yahoo Paying Its New CEO Mayer The Overall Compensation Of Around $60 Million

Yahoo days ago had appointed Google’s no.20 employee Marissa Mayer as company’s CEO, leaving the two other potential competitors who are also in same run: current interim CEO Ross Levinsohn and Hulu CEO Jason Kilar. At that time, Yahoo not revealed the numbers behind of hiring Mayer, but in its yesterday’s regulatory filing fill-out, the company revealed that it is paying its new CEO Marissa Mayer a total of close to $60 million. The sum includes salary, equity grants, stock options, payment for the Google shares she left behind and one-time $30 million retention award. According to one Yahoo board member, the pay package is like a “big, big bucks.”
