Compensation for CEOs of the industry’s public companies rose in 2016. In addition to strong operational results, some key external events fueled the increases.
Waste Management saw head honcho David Steiner step down and collect a retirement package and new CEO Jim Fish took over.
Waste Connections completed its giant merger with Progressive Waste Solutions, boosting Ron Mittestaedt’s compensation. And Advanced Disposal completed a long awaited IPO, with Richard Burke seeing a boost in his total compensation as a result.
