A clever bonus

Why do they grumble about Mr Hester’s bonus? I think it is clever at the least and cynical at most to give the boss of a share listed company shares as a bonus. If Mr Hester’s leadership is useless his shares are going to be worthless but if he is good he’s shares increase in value. A very good motivator. After all it was a publicly accepted argument that employees should become shareholders to increase their motivation in the company.
Whether RBS is owned by the people is not really the point, it is still depending of a good manager.
