Google gives CEO Sundar Pichai a mega pay rise, as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang also gets a tidy bonus

• Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai could get $692 million over three years (his base salary is just $2m)
• Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang could get a $4 million bonus payout due to strong financial performance
• Google and Nvidia have had strong years in terms of share prices

Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai could earn up to $692 million over the next three years under a new compensation plan the company disclosed in a SEC filing.

"There is no change to Mr. Pichai’s annual salary of [$2 million]," the statement reads, adding that this remains unchanged since 2020 and that Pichai is also ineligible for further bonuses.

However, the company board has approved a separate performance-based and time-based equity award cycle which refreshes every three years, and it's worth far more than his salary.
