    Many put bag holders losing money again on BAC. Thank you put buyers I love selling them short and booking 100% profit. Can't believe people will pay $2+ for a Sept. 27.50 put on BAC. Fools and their money are soon parted. This trade is an equity killer. Reply

    A Better Place: Almost everything you said is utter nonsense. If you voted for Bush you are partly responsible for the current Bush Recession. Reply

    Hi, this is Tim A from Glassdoor.com.

    @omajinai - the CEO approval ratings actually came from employees who have posted their reviews to Glassdoor. When an employee posts a review of his/her company, we also ask them to rate the performance of their CEO - and from there we can aggregate an overall CEO approval rating.

    And I think what makes Glassdoor different than a poll where the results can be skewed by those that choose to participate, we actually require everyone to participate (whether happily employed or disgruntled). We use a "give-to-get"... model - which means, to see the reviews posted by the community you first need to give us a review of your current or former employer. This model helps ensure we get ratings from a wider cross section of employees, and thus the results are more balanced than a typical poll.

    Hope that helps explain how the ratings work - check it out for yourself at www.glassdoor.com.     Reply

    Interesting that the company I work for (and have for 10 years) is on the list - yet I've never been approached to rate the CEO.

    I wonder who they got to rate them. I give these types of polls about as much credence as I give to a used car salesman's WORD.

    I would lay good odds that 90% of the people who were asked to respond that were in good standing (still employed/happily employed) with the company probably didn't bother to respond. Yet the 10% that had recently been let go, or were "disgruntled"... made sure that they did. Therefore, the poll numbers are most likely skewed.

    I would like some correlations here--most popular CEOs are those that are in relatively "well to do" in this economy. They are performing reasonably well. The only exception is JPM, which suggests that CEO is really special. I would not think much of the other top 10. Employees are like shareholders--when times are okay, employees have jobs, they think their CEO is doing good job. Reply

    Just some personal experience: Amgen always has been a company people loved to work for. Not only a great pipeline and great stock option evolution but mainly the company culture was a huge asset. Now the CEO (ex GE) thought everyone around him were a bunch of softies and everybody who wants a business career should have been in the navy. Then he hires some xxxxholes from big pharma like Baxter and Merck and you know what you get: an east-coast mentality in a west-coast company. Simply wont work.... Reply

    Last chance to get aboard the Manzana Express. Soon Apple @ $190 will be history!

    As soon as they let out their new hardware upgrades and release the number of iPhones sold.

    IMHO

    AOL and Randy are mentioned at #7 on the worst CEO list. Whoever said AOL wasn't in the article needs to learn how to read. Reply

    Jakw: While the approval rating of "Congress," as an institution, is quite low (in part because the Republicans keep blocking the process), the ratings of INDIVIDUAL Representatives and Senators by their own constituents (the only ones who matter) are usually pretty good, much better than President Bush's. Do your homework. Reply

    Hey Maney, you along with most opinionaters, like to compare unfavorability ratings with President Bush's 30% approval rating WITHOUT acknowledging the congressional approval rating between 9 and 14%. GOOD GRIEF ... when you are looking for low marks why not exhibit real understanding of what low really is. Congress wins the lump of coal and columnists who think they are writing dramatic revelations overlook the most dramatic, obvious reference. Congress is so low it should be unplugged from life support. Reply
