That's the word on just-canned Yahoo COO Henrique De Castro from The New York Times Bits blog, which cited compensation research firm Equilar in reporting that De Castro will walk away with somewhere from $88 million to $109 million for 15 months of work.
That's because in her first big hire as Yahoo's new CEO, former Googler Marissa Mayer enticed him away from her alma mater with a fat contract and what Forbes has called one of the biggest golden parachute packages ever.
"Henrique is an incredibly accomplished and rigorous business leader, and I'm personally excited to have him join Yahoo's strong leadership team," Mayer said in a statement at the time.
