Pfizer CEO gets 61% pay raise—to $27.9 million—as drug prices continue to climb | Ars Technica

'That included two waves of price hikes, one in January and the other on June 1. '

'The price hikes come amid a national outrage over the high prices of medications and healthcare overall. '

'The 61 percent raise comes after a string of separate reports noting drug price increases by Pfizer. '

'In January, FiercePharma reported an analysis finding that Pfizer implemented 116 price hikes just between this past December 15 and January 3 of this year. '

'Pfizer’s board reportedly approved the compensation boost because they saw it as a “compelling incentive” to keep Read from retiring. '
