thanks for jumping in with this I think its a pretty rare case that an employer facing tens of billions in claims keeps paying into the comp plan and im pretty happy with PG&E right now. I think that likely its a good sign that they want to keep the employees motivated.

one other thing OP talks about is that the payouts are up to 90k for senior members. that's a far cry from the millions that we see bank execs getting. I dont think we should treat this with such hostility.



Why should the senior execs get anything other than a pink slip and/or a very long look at the bad side of a prison cell door?


frankly, because they were promised it. if we create scenarios where employers can skip out on paying due compensation to employees who have already performed the work then our corporate system would be even more rigged then it is.

In the case of corporate governance, we hold board members accountable. not employees who do as they are paid.
