Will they adjust Urs Holzle’s compensation for working from New Zealand?

Urs is Google employee #8. He is so rich I doubt he is compensated in any way that's meaningful to him today.

He probably only works to have a seat at the table and a say in how the future of technology is built.

Yet they still pay him a ton (executive comp is public). Weird.

To keep him from having a seat at a different table.

But why would he go to a different table for more money if he has so much money that pay doesn't matter to him?

Yea its quite expensive to live here so he will probably get a pay increase.
