I saw this report and thought it’d be okay to share it here. The 2023 “Low Wage 100” report details executive pay vs worker pay for 100 corporations with the lowest median worker pay levels in 2022. The full report isn’t too lengthy. It has an Appendix that lists the 100 corporations.

Link to key findings and where to download the full report included. Some key findings from the report: Chief executives in the Low Wage 100 made $15.3 million on average in 2022, while median worker pay averaged just $31,672. The CEO-worker pay gap at the Low-Wage 100 averaged 603 to 1 in 2022. Live Nation Entertainment had the largest gap. Michael Rapino made $139 million, 5,414 times as much as his firm’s median of $25,673. The Low-Wage 100 have spent more than $340 billion on stock buybacks since 2020. During their stock buyback spree, Low-Wage 100 CEOs’ personal stock holdings increased more than three times as fast as their firms’ median worker pay. Over half of the Low-Wage 100 receive taxpayer-funded federal contracts.
