"Go on, take the money and run..."
Oct. 24th, 2012 07:07 pmI admit that I've had my issues with Citigroup/Citibank in the past, which is why the following piece of schadenfreude is just such a delight to read:
Citigroup’s Chief Executive Officer, Vikram Pandit, was apparently pushed out by that company’s board of directors after five years in that position. And Bloomberg reports that during that time, Pandit earned $261 million while the company, the third largest American bank, lost 90% of its stock value.
In other words, Citigroup just paid a major reason for their abject failure over $250 million dollars to continue to be a reason for their abject failure for the years he was in charge. Classic. Just classic.
