Other notability large bonuses include CFO Patric Pichette who earned a $2.8 million bonus, and CLO David Drummond who took home a cool $3.3 million in extra cash. Rounding things out is Google's CBO, Nikesh Arora, who received a $2.8 million bonus. Google says that all the bonuses are given in recognition for contributions to the company's performance last year.

 

Google co-founder and current CEO, Sergey Brin took no bonus this year, following in the footsteps of Larry Page, the other co-founder of the search giant. Schmidt's massive bonus came on the heels of reports that he will be selling off roughly $2.5 billion of his stake in Google.
