Article Abstract:

Corporate executives are often regarded by the media and public as overpaid, underworked, and overly powerful. Their salaries indicate they cannot relate to the average employee. However, the truth remains that these executives' pay packets are paid as incentives. In the banking industry, job security for them has disappeared and almost 60% of their earning is available only through bonuses and incentives.
