Tim Armstrong, the first-ever CEO of Verizon’s Oath, will receive $60million to leave the company even though the division he led saw its value drop by half, it has been reported.
In a move announced by the company last fall, Armstrong left after his stint as the head of the Verizon unit that included faded internet stars AOL and Yahoo.
The $60million payout is derived from a combination of salary, severance, and an incentive package that he received when Verizon acquired AOL in 2015, according to The Wall Street Journal.
