Battle Creek, Michigan-Based Cereal Company Kellogg's Top-Tier Executives Average Pay Raise Was 7.8% Per Year During the Past 10 Years (2009-2018)

Detroit, Michigan is the site of the second Democratic 2020 Presidential candidate televised debate to be held on July 30-31, 2019.  The Under 75 Progressive Wing will be led by the energetic Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Corey Booker and Julian Castro.  The Under 75 More Moderate Wing will be led by Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O'Rourke and Latecomers Michael Bennet and Steven Bullock.

The key issue to Detroit and to Michigan citizens should be the huge and continuing Income Inequality Expansion which is at the core of many critical problems the US faces.

Thus I will be doing research and making posts on the average pay raise per year that the Top-Tier Executives of many large Michigan Companies were rewarded with in the past ten years.

The sixth Michigan Company I am addressing is Cereal Maker Kellogg.

From annual compensation information contained in Company Proxy Statement filings with the SEC, the chart at the very bottom below shows Kellogg's Top-Tier Executives Annual Total Compensation for each of two consecutive full years of employment for the most recent ten years.   

Kellogg's Top-Tier Executive Average Pay Raise was 7.8% per year for the last ten which is the lowest of the large Michigan Companies I have addressed so far.

1. General Motors  +29.5% per year for the past ten years
2. Stryker Corp +20.7% per year for the past ten years
3. Ford Motor Co +17.0% per year for the past ten years
4. DTE Energy +10.6% per year for the past ten years
5. Aptiv PLC +10.0% per year for the past eight years
6. Kellogg +7.8% per year for the past ten years
