The 39-year-old former Google exec was paid $1 million in salary — but that’s just the start. Stock and option awards heaped on an additional $11.7 million and $28.2 million respectively. Add in $1.1 million in an incentive pay plan and $28,065 in additional perks and you get to $42 million. Last year, she was paid a total $24.9 million.
