Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson has chopped his 2022 salary in half — from $39.2 million to $19.9 million — after the company promised changes following negative shareholder feedback.

Observers also point out that, despite the pay cut, Wilson’s salary far outstrips those of EA’s rank-and-file workers. According to EA’s financial report, Wilson’s new salary is still 172 times the median salary of EA employees, which sits at $115,569.
