Compensation History

See how much did Liam E. McGee make over time.

Liam E. McGee's compensation at The Hartford Financial Services Group has varied significantly during his tenure. In 2014, his total compensation was approximately $3.35 million, which included a salary of $1 million and a sizable bonus of about $3.26 million. This bonus was linked directly to the company's performance that year. In contrast, in 2012, his earnings soared to $11.16 million, reflecting achievements tied to previously set financial goals. His approach showed a blend of security with a clear focus on performance, as he included performance-based metrics in determining potential bonuses. There were also years, like 2011, when he voluntarily declined a cash bonus, indicating a commitment to the company's long-term health, rather than immediate rewards. McGee's financial package often included various perks but was predominantly driven by performance metrics that reflected both personal leadership and company results.
