Steve Ells and Monty Moran.

Chipotle's business is booming, and the burrito chain's co-CEOs are being paid handsomely for it.

Steve Ells and Monty Moran made a combined $58 million last year, according to James Covert at The New York Post.

Covert writes that proxy advisory firm ISS wants shareholders to vote against the compensation package at the May 15 annual meeting.

"A combined $58 million in CEO pay for a fast food company isn’t just excessive — it’s indefensible," New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer told the Post.

1. And the people that actually do the work

and earn the company $$$ scrape by pay check to pay check...

2. The one time I ate at a Chipotle I was not impressed.

There's at least two dozen little hole in the wall Tex-Mex eateries within five minutes of my house that are far tastier and cheaper.

3. They are to Mex food like P F Chang is to Chinese food..

7. Yes

that's true, but I'll take chipotle over taco bell any day. (I eat at Chipotle maybe twice a year. In my neighborhood alone there is a quick taco place that I prefer... and even there I go maybe once a month or every other month.)

I made perfectly great shrimp tacos with a cabbage slaw last night in 20 minutes.

9. I have never eaten in a Taco Bell and never will.

OLE !!

4. Do they clone these guys?

They're both wearing the exact same shit eating grin.

5. if you were making that kind of money

you would have a shit eating grin too

[MrScorpio]

6. Personally, if I made $58 million...

I'd try to figure how to give most of it away, or by doing some good with it.

With workers' wages as stagnant as they are for so long, these CEO compensation deals are obscene.

8. They could 'start at home'.

By asking for a raise for workers rather than so much pay for themselves...

And, btw, I actually like chipotle's - fresh ingredients, simply cooked. Makes me want to try to reproduce the things at home.

11. Maybe Ells is just happy he started the company.

Nothing to do with eating shit really.

10. They do make a good burrito, though. We eat at Chipotle a lot.
