Isn't Pichai's compensation mostly tied to stock?

It's... Not really the same thing, because being the CEO of the company ties the hands behind his back if he wants to actually use his stock compensation.

Edit: for any Google SWE making <100k, just move to the US, man. The pay is so much higher it's not even funny.

Comparing pay from one country to another is a lot harder than just looking at the numbers. Earning 100k$ in the US is not the same as earning 100k$ in Poland for example

This. It's like day and night. 100k in SF isn't much at all
