Think "well-compensated female CEO" and Marissa Mayer is likely to come to mind, but the Yahoo CEO has been knocked off her perch as the highest-paid one, per an Equilar-AP analysis. The survey included only women CEOs who've been in their roles for at least two years at companies on the S&P 500 that filed federal proxy statements between Jan. 1 and May 1 of this year. Looking at base salary, plus bonuses, stocks, perks, and other compensation, the survey found that women CEOs overall did well on the paycheck front, with a median payday of $13.1 million in 2016 (their male counterparts only raked in a median payout of $11.4 million). But of 346 CEOs, just 21 were female. Here, the 10 women chief execs who got paid the most:
- Virginia Rometty, IBM: $32.3 million
- Marissa Mayer, Yahoo: $27.4 million
- Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo: $25.2 million
- Mary Barra, General Motors: $22.4 million
- Phebe Novakovic, General Dynamics: $21.2 million
- Marillyn Hewson, Lockheed Martin: $19.4 million
- Irene Rosenfeld, Mondelez International: $15.8 million
- Lynn Good, Duke Energy: $13.5 million
- Heather Bresch, Mylan NV: $13.3 million
- Susan Cameron, Reynolds American: $13.1 million
