The managers at Apple really cash in: In 2016, the top managers earned a salary that most people can only dream of. Hold on, because we will reveal the incredible sums of top managers.
Bold: millions of salaries for Apple's top managers
In the last quarter alone, Apple sold over 50 million iPhones. That's why the top managers also get top salaries:
- Apple boss Tim Cook is a poor gobbler - at least compared to his colleagues: he only got $ 8.7 million in annual salary in 2016. No wonder that he has great competition in the list of the richest men in the tech industry.
- With his salary, he could buy around 10, 000 people an iPhone 6s or book two private concerts with Madonna.
- But don't worry, Tim Cook isn't poor. He owns a fat stock package worth several hundred million dollars.
Double salary: Apple's chief financial officer pays dignified
- Apple's finance director Luca Maestri can handle money like no other at Apple. It pays well: When he came to Apple in 2014, he received around $ 14 million a year.
- In 2015, he almost doubled his salary: the CFO posted an incredible $ 25.3 million to his account. The sum consists of a share package (approximately 20 million), bonus payments (4 million) and a normal salary of one million.
- In 2016, the chief financial officer again raised shares and cash totaling 22.8 million euros.
- Fun fact: Because Maestri had to move for the new job at Apple, he still received almost $ 150, 000 in moving money. But these are more peanuts ...

This woman has the highest salary at Apple
- Angela Ahrendts received $ 73 million three years ago when she joined Apple. Correctly read: $ 73, 000, 000.00. The majority as a share package, but she was the highest paid employee. Before that, she had earned a fraction of it at Burberry.
- In 2015, Apple did not let rags and paid Ahrendts $ 25.7 million. She manages retail and online retail at Apple and is responsible, among other things, for the expansion of Apple stores around the world.
- Because business declined slightly in 2016, Ahrendts received slightly less: around $ 22.9 million in shares and cash.
Apple's hardware boss receives a lot of money
- Dan Riccio leads Apple’s hardware division and was awarded $ 25 million in 2015.
- That's not much more than last year, but in 2013 he just got $ 3 million.
- Riccio also had to make a few cuts in 2016: Due to a drop in profits, he "only" received 22.8 million euros. About 20 million of them as a share package.
Apple lawyer also in the 25 million club
- You can also make a career as a lawyer at Apple: Attorney General Bruce Sewell earned around $ 25 million in 2015.
- But he also had a lot to do: There were many lawsuits against Apple last year.
- In 2016, his salary dropped to 22.8 million euros. Thereof about 2.75 million euros in cash.
