Is over 100k a lot for an executive? How do you get executives if you don’t pay market rate? I’m not even talking competent executives, or particularly skilled.
Why so many executives?
Ah, the part where we all get pissed off at the salaries
I find the whole situation laughable at this stage between people wanting to know what people are paid, to suggestions we just move a large capacity of flights to Shannon or Cork.
If there was demand to fly to Shannon or Cork the Airlines would do that.
Of course there are people earning above 100,000 managing the busiest Airport in the country.
Unfortunately they let security staff go during the pandemic and the surge in the recovery of the airline industry caught them on the hop.
They will hire and train more staff and this will be forgotten about in a month or so.
If they also kept all the staff on for the two years you would find the same people complaining about keeping staff that they didn’t need and what a waste of money it was
So?
That’s fine. It’s the security staff getting €13 per hour that people were miffed about.
Firstly, DAA has more than 200 executives????? Why?
I don’t understand, don’t executives normally earn €100k upwards? How is this even news?
Why do they need so many executives?
They have 10 times more executives than security staff. Maybe these cunts should be manning the X Ray machine.
That’s not fair, I want €100,000.
Okay? 100k isn’t very much these days, especially at executive level? Pick a higher figure, then we can get mad
Standard. 100k is not a very large salary.
How does one go about getting a €100k+ career as a useless cunt?
the whole place needs an overhaul. Went to change my sons nappy in the first changing room after landing in Dublin, the state of the changing room, wouldnt change a dogs nappy on it, ended up having to do it in the corridor.. normally in such a situation we would recline his stroller and do it on that.. Told by staff on the plane we would get the stroller at the end of the gangway off the plane, waiting there 10 minutes with a toddler until a security guy told us to get on our way, no stoller here..
Go to collect our stroller, no sign of it on the right hand side of the hall at the back. No actual signs to say where to find the thing. Had to wait 10minutes to ask a worker there to get that info, over to have a look. No stroller, back to the guy, check the belt at the other end of the hall.. what?! OK stroller there! Let’s go.
Out to the busses. Ask the guy at the aircoach booth for a ticket, he says to go ask yer man in that bus there, that bus there happens to be Dublin bus, driver says to use the machine by the stop, step off, get 3 tickets quick as. Bus drives off. Go back to yer man at the Aircoach booth and ask him what the story is and that you in fact buy tickets from Dublin Bus at that machine there, he says I duno, I dont work for them. I wanted to originally buy a ticket for an Aircoach off this guy. 20 minutes for the next Dublin Bus..
I mean, imagine encountering this as a tourist and yer English ain’t the best and this is your first impression
Playing fast and loose with the word executive! They could just say more than 200 employees. 100k is a great salary, but it’s not outrageous if you want to hire good people (whether all 200 of these are good people is a separate debate!!). As a general point though, I’ve never understood the issue with paying people in positions of power well. If you want idiots running banks, major strategic infrastructure companies or being key civil servants then you can’t complain when they do a poor job. A really talented person is not going to take a job running an Irish bank if they can make three times more running a UK bank
more execs than security staff
Wtf why they need 200 exécutive in the first place
Semi state brah!
100k for a role with a bit of management responsibility in a profitable company is fairly standard for Dublin tbh.
For a company woth 8500 people, 200 on 100k+ is not excessive. This more stupid populist media nonsense. Junior managers in tech companies, solicitors with a couple of years experience, manager grade in consultancies, etc… All earn 100k+
This tabloid mentality bullshit again? “People in Ireland are paid market rates for their jobs!!” Oh the horror.
Make sure to use the word “executive” instead of managers. Unfamiliar words are big and scary. Tabloid bullshit.
Manufactured outrage over stuff like this just makes us look like backwards yokels. Why can’t Irish people earn good money? Why can’t Irish people have jobs on par with the rest of the world?
We’re not a small British colony any more. We’re a proper grown up country where people get paid first world country rates for their jobs.
Even worse. Saying that some people are getting paid too much while others aren’t getting paid enough is reductive bullshit. It isn’t an either/or situation. Yes they should be paying the rest of the staff more, but they should be paying management what they’re paying them.
The world isn’t binary, no matter how much the papers love to push the idea. It’s entirely possible for two things to happen at once. It’s entirely possible for a company or organisation to do two things at once and its entirely possible for a government to do two things at once.
We need to stop falling for this clickbait and populist shit.

It’s always just pure ragebait.
