EA statement shows staggering amount of money CEO bagged this year—while 5 percent of employees were laid off
EA chief executive Andrew Wilson netted $25 million last financial year while the company cut five percent of its global workforce and shuttered several offices to “drive growth.”
These new financial details comes from EA’s Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement 2024 (courtesy of Game Developer) which details the company’s annual net bookings and executive compensation structure, among other things. What stands out more than anything is the $60 million bagged cumulatively by EA execs in a year plagued by staff layoffs.
