Uber Paid Ceo Dara Khosrowshahi 45M Last Year Coo Barney Harford 47 3M

Altogether, Uber’s top five executives made a total of $143 million in 2018. Here’s how that breaks down: Barney Harford, COO: $47.3 Million Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO: $45 Million Nelson Chai, CFO: $28 Million Thuan Pham, CTO (Chief Technology Officer): $12.7 Million Nikki Krishnamurthy, CPO (Chief People Officer): $9.7 Million Most of that compensation was made up of stock awards, with the rest coming as base salary and various other reimbursements and bonuses. Khosrowshahi got a base salary of just $1 million, plus a $2 million bonus, with $40.1 million in three different stock grants. The remainder was $2 million for his personal security, $89,000 in reimbursements for various relocation expenses, and $98,357 to cover some associated taxes. Harford, on the other hand, made a base salary of $500,000, with a $1 million bonus, some restricted stock valued at $26.3 million, and another $19.6 million in stock options. Various other security and relocation expenses make up the remainder, as with Khosrowshahi’s compensation. The other top executives’ compensation broke down in a similar way, with relatively little in the way of base salary and bonuses and the majority coming in various forms of awarded stock – all of which is going to become even more valuable after the company goes public later this year – an IPO that is expected by many to be among the most lucrative ever. The healthy executive pay came despite big reported losses for Uber in 2018, and a continued drop in average pay for the service’s army of independent contractor drivers.
