CEO Brian J. Farrell earned $2.5 million last year and he has received $22 million in stock options.
They lost 55 million in the 3rd quarter of their Fiscal 2012 year, irritation hatred of people that make more than you (his $2.5mil in cash) and attempting to imply that his salary has any bearing at all on the financials of the company doesn't do anything except show that you still have a junior high/maybe high school level knowledge (which in the U.S., would be literally nothing) of finances and economics. He's pretty much the only one at this point that can do anything and make decisions that might save the company, which I doubt he will be able to do. Whoever presented to him and recommended that they do this uDraw tablet thing on the PS3/360 is probably more to blame than he is.
He said "ok" to the udraw, he's to blame. You don't become a CEO so that you can pass the buck.
Yeah his previous 17 years of being THQ's CEO is pretty much irrevelent, I agree. For however many millions THQ made with him as the CEO since 1995 (CEO at one company for 17 years? Never heard of such a long reign...impressive), he was in actuality compensated probably pretty poorly, and now when the company is failing the board failed to fire him in time and try to find somebody else to change the companies direction and everybody is saying 'his $2.5mil salary is way too much!!' Does anybody know how much Google's CEO makes, Apple's CEO? Does anybody else know who the fuck runs Apple now that Jobs died? Nobody cares because they can make money off of those companies by blindly dumping money into their stock then selling 3-6-12 months later. CEO's make way too little when their company is thriving under their control because THEY are in control as you said and should be paid for it, then when a company is falling away everybody yells and says 'they should make $1 because right now they make more than me and their company is failing and that's not fair!!!'
