Alphabet, the parent company of Google, appears to remain resilient despite legal setbacks, as its stock price, revenue, and profit experienced significant growth in 2024. This outcome comes in the wake of multiple court decisions against Alphabet for alleged anticompetitive practices. Nevertheless, this challenging legal landscape has not deterred the company from setting a new benchmark in the realm of corporate legal compensation.
Kent Walker, Alphabet’s Chief Legal Officer, has become the first U.S. General Counsel to surpass the $30 million compensation mark. According to a proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Walker’s earnings for 2024 have increased by 10% from the previous year, reaching a total of $30.17 million.
