• MNB does not usually report much about executive salaries - feeling, in general, that people ought to be able to make as much as they can as long as a) they deliver value for their wages, b) they are being evaluated on the right things, and c) women in the company are being made as much as men for the same jobs. MNB also has a bias in favor of companies where senior executives understand that good salaries and benefits ought to be extended as much to people on the front lines as those in the executive suite.
