Safra Catz
The long-time Oracle finance chief and CEO, known for taking a $950,000 salary and no annual equity — then voluntarily zeroing her own bonus.
Why this pay?
- Her pay is unusual: a flat $950,000 salary and no new annual equity grants, so her Summary Compensation Table total is tiny for a mega-cap CEO. In fiscal 2025 it fell to about $1.1 million after she voluntarily declined her cash bonus. In September 2025 she stepped down as CEO to become Oracle’s Executive Vice Chair.
Worth knowing
