> I only ever see woman CEOs in the spotlight for making too much money.

When male executives are seen as being both overpaid and underperforming, they also get a lot of stick, some examples being Fred Goodwin and Steve Ballmer.

If you only ever see it when it is female CEOs, maybe that's because you only ever notice it then.



I read the comment not as saying "only female ceos are criticized for too much money" but "female executives are only criticized for making too much money".
