Salaries of officers of non-profits are public information. See page 8.

She was taking $5.6M from "related organizations" (not quite sure what that would be), but not much from the Mozilla Foundation itself. The rest of the board is taking $115k-$340k directly from the Foundation.

Those are insane amounts to me, in a non-profit. Non-profit sounds meaningless when considering certain people within the organization are making $340k off of donated money. It's a mockery of the term in my opinion.

$5.6M is just on a whole separate level though. Speechless.

I assume that on the IRS returns form for Mozilla Foundation, the "related organization" that the CEO of Mozilla Corporation gets 5+ million from is probably Mozilla Corporation. But I don't know.
