Another little Tibit of Information,,, 811 employees received $107 million in compensation, which equates to an average compensation of $132,000. However, only 459 employees received more than $100,000 in compensation. The 21 most highly compensated employees were reported to be:
$883,264: William Magness, Board Member, President and CEO $500,834: Cheryl Mele, SVP and COO $468,394: Jerry Dreyer, SVP and CIO $452,865: Chad Seely, SVP, General Counsel and Governance $395,669: Michael Petterson, VP and CFO $370,906: Dwayne Rickerson, VP, Grid Planning and Operations $370,622: Diane M Williams, VP, Human Resources $358,095: Theresa Gage, VP, External Affairs and Corp Comm $350,934: Sallie Betty Day, VP, Gov’t, Risk, and Compliance $349,982: Kenan Ogleman, VP, Commercial Operations $317,839: Steve Daniels, VP, Application Services and IT Ops $290,373: David Forfia, Director, IT Architecture $289,296: Nathan Bigbee, Asst General Counsel, Regulator $288,202: Mark Ruane, Director, Settlements, Retail, and CRE $287,753: Bryan Hanley, Director, IT Infrastructure $286,358: Joel Mickey, Senior Director, Wholesale Market Design $284,403: Dan Woodfin, Sr. Director, System Operations $264,925: Warren Lasher, Senior Director, System Planning $261,252: Vickie Leady, Asst GC and Asst Corp Sec’y $254,291: John Messer, Director, IT Application Development $235,538: Amanda Bauld, Director, Project Management Office The 21 most highly compensated employees received nearly $8 million. How many of these skid marks bailed out? I haven't seen anything in the news for these folks. They are the inside people that actually get stuff done and IMO, are the ones most responsible for why things didn't happen. Some big named board member is listening to these folks and helping to set direction. However, board members aren't usually the guys implementing stuff. If anyone on the inside resigns, I would expect it would be the CEO, COO and the Grid Planning and Operations guy. On a different note, it looks like IT jobs pay pretty well over at Ercot.
Thanks, Rich

Why does a VP of human resources need over $30,000 per month in salary? HR is a joke.

Some one maybe from Florida, for the sake of hurricanes.... some one from up north for the sake of blizzards... some one from the desert, that know a little something about heat, and droughts....... people who deal with extremes.... but thats just me.... not to mention this lays at the foot of the state, they are the ones in charge of the grid. They should of enclosed, and protected the power plants when Ercotnmade the suggestions.

Also all elected state officials live in Texas..... and they are ones with the power..... how did that workout?

The system has worked pretty good for years. The problem this time was not ERCOT, it was the failure of the power providers to adequately winterize their equipment, Up north gas power plants don't shut down or have to reduce production because of the winter conditions, nor do the wind power generators freeze up.

Yep. Ercot seems to be the punching bag in a world full of people that need someone to blame for a century storm and the havoc it brings.
