GM Reveals Barra Will Get Paid More Than Ackerson

Any of the handwringing over whether or not General Motors CEO Mary Barra is getting equal pay for equal work was put to rest today: she’s not, she’s getting more.

GM revealed that her compensation for Barra will be about $14.4 million, which is 60% higher than what her predecessor, Dan Akerson, received in 2013. The maker released the information early – two months of ahead of scheduled – to deflect criticism leveled at the company that it was not paying her what they paid Akerson.

Not bad for someone who hasn't done jack so far. Hope she isn't one of those Marissa Mayer types who just bats her eyelashes and the stock price goes up to hide the fact they haven't done anything.
