How Raytheon Technologies CEO Pay Compares

Total compensation for Chris Calio at Raytheon Technologies (RTX) was $12.0M. Mid-cap public-company CEO packages tend to track this pattern — equity-heavy, multi-year vesting, performance-tied.

The CEO-to-median-worker pay ratio runs 120x. Lower ratios typically reflect companies with higher-paid workforces (financial services, technology, professional services) where the median worker pay denominator is itself substantial. Three-year performance has been roughly flat — TSR of 5.7% alongside 9.7% revenue growth. Flat performance over a multi-year window is where pay-versus-performance debates get the most heated: large compensation packages without commensurate shareholder returns are the modal complaint at annual meetings.

Say-on-pay support was strong at 94%. The Dodd-Frank-mandated advisory vote on executive compensation passes at most U.S. public companies with comfortable margins; meaningful dissent typically requires either pay-performance misalignment or specific governance concerns. Raytheon Technologies operates in Aerospace & Defense with 185,000 employees and $75.0B in annual revenue, and currently carries a market capitalization of $155.0B. Pay comparisons across companies require controlling for these structural factors — a $20M package at a $10B-revenue tech company reads differently than the same package at a $1B-revenue industrial.
