I wouldn’t call Roberts’ $35 million compensation particularly surprising for his position. The number we should be discussing is Mike Cavanagh’s. Comcast’s own SEC filing shows he received $71.8 million in total compensation for 2025, including $60.3 million in stock awards. That’s a 154% increase from the previous year.
He also sold approximately $1.9 million in Comcast stock in February 2026. If we’re going to discuss executive compensation while thousands of employees are losing their jobs, let’s focus on the person receiving more than twice what Roberts received. The bigger question is what performance justified that increase.
@ag agreed. The sooner people realize this, the more they’ll understand. The goal is to fill executive pockets: Making cancellations hard, adding incorrect billing, keeping prices high? Yeah, it hurts and causes customers to leave and stocks to drop but it still brings in the revenue to pay their salaries. And when the going gets tough? Head to a new job with your millions, not my problem. The goal isn’t actual company health but individual executive wealth. It doesn’t fall on deaf ears what we say, it falls on “we know but that would cut our own compensation” ears.
@OP doesn’t matter if they steer towards growth, they’re probs trying to get their bag before it burns to the ground
it's true . no one cares
If rumors are true that Comcast shortchanged severance this go round, that $100M between the co-CEOs is concerning.
