Under The Spotlight: Boeing CEO David Calhoun Earned $33 Million But Declined Yearly Bonus In 2023

The dust has barely settled since Boeing’s President and Chief Executive Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down at the end of 2024. However, new details have emerged about the executive’s salary. In a securities filing on Friday, April 5th, Boeing said Calhoun would not be considered for an annual incentive bonus of nearly $3 million. At the same time, it was revealed that Calhoun received $33 million in compensation for 2023 - an increase of nearly 50% from 2022. There have been even more eyebrow-raising numbers revealed - and we’ll look at them all for today’s video…

What about the previous CEOs? All these faults are not only the current one created.

[@jace1113]

I believe the previous CEO also declined his bonus

[@TheTransporter007]

Now, throw Calhoun and all the other B/C level executives in prison.

[@digimanga]

Wow, it was actually turned down? At Boeing? 😆

[@Choosewiselyeye]

He also spent up to 2million to shut John burnet’s mouth RIP John burnet

[@mohwybar5832]

No he did not. There is no evidence he was murdered. If you believe so, Russian disinformation has gotten to you

[@CubicSpline7713]

Source? Facts?

[@alexrebmann1253]

What information do you have on this?

[@LOGGoff]

Imagine being responsible for two crashes that killed hundreds of people and destroyed lives and being paid for it. Humanity at its finest.

[@craigbeatty8565]

He wasn’t CEO then.

[@CP-zi3eg]

Who knows..he was probably paid 33 million to say that he would have declined

[@MACHETICO7]

If thats true…… my point of view about calhoun change totally

[@waynemerlo7448]

Oh poor baby only 33 million. How will he ever survive?

[@medivyanshsingh]

still enough money for his remaining life

[@Rasscasse]

The poor man, how will Mr David Calhoun even manage.

[@Mark-uh7cr]

Why not forego the $40mm dollar salary and just take the $3mm bonus?

[@grriceman782]

Shame on Boeing’s board of directors … to compensate this guy this significantly.

[@NicotineRosberg]

'Declined' - after he's like "yea... I was only kidding"

America vs. European greed.

[@Wileybird03]

That’s just salary I’m sure. Look at the stock options. I’m sure way more! All these big CEO have 2-5 million base salary but waaaaaay more in other compensation

[@d.b.cooper1]

@@Wileybird03 Incorrect in 2021 per Bloomberg the Airbus CEO salary was 3 million euro, 1.35 was base, 1.4 bonus & 287k incentives from previous year. So yes it was 3 million in total including everything. In 2019 the same CEO also donated his whole bonus to NGO's & humanitarian organisations. In the past Airbus exec pay has been discussed at government level in France despite it mostly being private firm now.

[@Wileybird03]

@@d.b.cooper1 very well could be. Just saying most Fortune 500 company’s I feel that how compensation works 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@d.b.cooper1]

@@Wileybird03 True that is how it works, especially re stock options, but things are often slightly different in Europe thankfully, especially for those firms that were oneonce nationalisted entities or have some level of significance to government contracts/utilities etc. Boeing should be held to same level given how big their military contract business is & how linked it is generally to the government/a key industry

[@LaczPro]

You know what? Let's go to work at Boeing. It pays really well to not make planes and make everybody hate the company.

[@C420sailor]

That’s a start

[@gpaull2]

“Earned”?…I don’t think so.

[@vedymin1]

They all should be in jail, or on the street at least. Their assets seized and given to the workers and engineers.

[@sundragon7703]

In America, upper management is rewarded even though they were the ones who are at the heart of the train wreck. If the angry spotlight were not so bright, Calhoun would have quietly skated away with the bonuses...just like his predecessors.

I came here to read comments

[@jantjarks7946]

Calhoun's success was that he got rid of surplus bolts.

Really funny.
I cant stop laughing. You should do standup.
Nah... best stick to flipping burgers.

Boeing is in trouble and he gets $33m?

lets be honest, Dave Calhoun made himself look worse compared to Dennis Muilenburg
