According to figures from a Glassdoor rating (Glassdoor is a company rating site), Apple CEO Steve Jobs has a 91 percent approval rating from his employees. Dell CEO Michael Dell has a 66 percent approval rating and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has a 55 percent approval rating.
“CEO approval ratings are sometimes surprising,” comments Kevin Maney for the Seeking Alpha financial site. “At IBM , Sam Palmisano has the company doing better than it has in years, yet his rating is 48 percent—barely above the 46 percent rating that Yahoo employees give CEO Jerry Yang. At the high end, Cisco’s John Chambers has an 85 percent approval rating, and Intuit CEO Brad Smith gets a 96 percent rating. On the low end is Hector Ruiz at AMD at 11 percent and John Rittenmeyer at EDS at 16 percent.”

Apple employees get stock option and with Apple stock up over 1500% in the last year, they are hardly underpaid!

Your Mr. Jobs photo is a few years out of date…
Show some respect for the man as he is,
not as he was.

Oh, you poor underpaid saps! You’re letting the man oppress you with low wages and has beguiled you into thanking him for it…
