Cote has served as chief executive of Honeywell since February 2001. Over the past five years, shares of the company have soared 78 percent, but the CEO makes the overpaid list because he makes much more than his industry peers, he gets a very generous retirement package and he earned more than $500,000 in job perks, the As You Sow report found.
