Dick Costolo - $127,757
7 of 10
Amongst the 10 companies on this list, Twitter(TWTR) spent the least to keep its CEO out of harm's way in 2014. Halfway through 2015, Costolo stepped down from his position.
Does Twitter spend more on interim CEO Jack Dorsey? Maybe it splits the costs with Dorsey's other company, Square. Guess we won't know till next year!
