Facebook COO, Sheryl Sandberg Salary Trumps CEO Mark Zuckerberg

          "The most important career choice you'll make is who you marry."
                                                                              --
Sheryl Sandberg

Two weeks ago, I was singing "At Last," in memory of the greatest woman's voice who ever lived, Etta James. (Incidentally, this was the song to our first dance at our wedding.)

Today it's "At Last," the highest paid employee at a major corporation, Facebook, is a woman! Second in command, Sheryl Sandberg could become one of the wealthiest self-made women in the world once the company goes public. According to Claudine Zap at Yahoo Shine, "Her salary and stock awards last year were $30.87 million."

According to Facebook's S-1 filing with the SEC on Wednesday, January 31st, Sandberg got $295,833 in salary plus a bonus of $85,133 and stock awards worth $30,491,613 which trumps the $1.49 million that CEO Mark Zuckerberg received (consisting of a salary of$483,333 plus a $220,500 bonus and “other compensation” worth $783,529).

When Facebook goes public Sandberg will become a billionaire; Yet she admits that she can't succeed alone. "We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women's voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored." said Sandberg in a commencement address to Barnard College graduates.
