Yeah, as a CEO I find it gross. I don't make the most at my company by a long shot - I own stock, which carries more risk, but I chose to take this path. If the company is over budget I'm the first to take a pay cut, I would never try to extract that from my employees before I did so with my own funds.
The reason developers are paid a lot is because they're worth a lot. That's it.
IMO If you're a CEO that's what you sign up for. If you can't handle that, find another job.
