<p>Although Mark Pincus, CEO and founder of Zynga, will be earning a salary of a single dollar in 2013 and will also not be taking part in the company&#8217;s cash bonus or equity program.</p>
<p>Although this may seem strange it should be noted that Mark Pincus is estimated to have a net worth of $1.8 million so it defiantly won&#8217;t be anything catastrophic for him to take a dollar salary this year, although it isn&#8217;t often heard of for obvious reasons.</p>
<p>Whilst Mark Pincus isn&#8217;t elgible for any bonus programs other big players in the company can take part in a new executive compensation program even though annual base salaries are within the range of $425,000-$500,000 for the executives. This extra compensation program has the potential of totaling 100% of their salaries if they meet their performance-based bonuses.</p>
