While Steve Jobs estate is worth billions, it is widely believed that Apple pays salaries that are somewhat lower than industry averages. That said, Tim Cook’s total remuneration package could eventually total hundreds of millions, but frontline employees, like a $41K Mac genius, don’t even make the median US wage ($51K)?

Forgive me for quibbling, but I think Mac genius’ $41K is a fair piece of change for a being non-managerial retail associate. However, I also think it beyond doubt that Steve Jobs, Tim Cook and people of their ilk take home way more than can possibly be justified…
