200k/year and free use of a $5M apartment

the fact that greg gets paid a doctors salary to make mistakes and play psychological gay chicken with his boss is crazy 😭😭

The reaction Greg gives to 40k is hilarious. Like that salary is the deepest cut that Tom has ever given him.

Listen, as a new yorker who can't even afford a studio apartment on $52k/yr unless I put 50% of my income towards rent, yeah dropping to $40k would be devastating for Greg, but the way people are acting like $200k/yr is LOW is insane lol. Tom has it right, no assistant with fuck all skills makes $200k, Greg only makes that much as a nepo baby. $200k/yr--especially if you're not paying rent--still means being very comfortable in NYC.

Dude passed up 250 mill for 200k.

I’m glad Greg was humbled after showing signs of haughtiness

This scene is a nice illustration of how Greg is the only person Tom trust the feedback from. Greg is the closest thing Tom has in form of a person he can talk to. Which is why Tom in the end is willing to go out of his way to keep Greg around. Through the seasons we see his contemt only grows for Shiv, while the fondness increases for Greg.

Yeah I think he’s getting paid 200k a year and being threatened with 40k a year which honestly is likely what happens since Tom is only keeping Greg in the end out of kindness (and to watch him squirm) and Mattson considers him a Judas. Super thin ice

This reveal was the biggest surprise of the series. I always assumed he was getting paid much more considering he was wearing a 40k watch

Many are cynical but I think Toms forgiveness of Greg at the end was sincere, sincere to their bromance. I think he realised he fucked up by winding Greg up in this scene and that he would have done the exact same as Greg in that position.

4 seasons in and I'm not even sure what greg gets paid for

Greg turned down $250,000,000 from his Grandfather for $200,000 a year... maybe even $40,000 now... And in New York, that's like, barely enough to live on.

In that world, 200k is nothing to be honest...but a miserable 40k is probably more realistic for someone who is not part of the family. The point here is to gaslight Greg into thinking he's making a fortune (that he should be ashamed of) and that fortune is at risk when he's just getting the scraps. Remember Greg in S1 was making pennies, he doesn't know his worth.

I’ve lived in NYC for almost 20 years and you feel poor no matter how much money you make. It is never ever enough.

I love how everyone saying 200k is low like Greg was making 16/hr at best previously to this.

$200k for doing what!?! Being Tom’s foot stool?

Greg should have taken the inheritance

anyone else disappointed/surprised he was only making 200k?? especially where he was the future CEOs right hand man with the promise of having other Gregs underneath him, add to that the cost of living in NYC... no wonder he was relegated to the California Pizza Kitchen when he got his first paycheck.

real gregheads know this was revealed in the season 2 scripts ✊😤

He's getting everything covered. That 200k he just saves and he has his own money but still he'd be just miserable

I love how Tom assumed Matthson will fire him and it’s the total opposite

i love these two... this duo will always be in my heart

Well.. Considering that Karolina made a million a year. You can probably say Tom made a little bit more of that because he was a direct boss of an entire branch of the company. But not THAT MUCH. so probably 1.2 million or something. And Tom didn't spend anything either because he lived in Shiv's place. Rom and Ken probably 1.5 1.8... But again, never having to spend actually, because even the cars were company own. So 200k it's a lot for just an assistant 😂😂

Law firm secretaries can make $100k a year. Greg being executive assistant to the head of ATN and now the CEO of a fortune 500 corporation, 200k is actually not uncommon.

200k a year seems small compared to what this family throws around .

200k for an executive assistant is quite a lot.

WE NEED A GREG SPIN OFF

Nobody working in media at that level supporting someone so high up is making as low as 40K a year. 200K is not even that much in the world these people are in.

for a bit of context, in season 1 logan calls out that karolina is paid 1 mil a year

The only two dudes in the Roy family that seemed to do actual work, and they were constantly blown off the Roy kids. Man, this whole series was just so frustrating (in a good way), watching Shiv, Ken, and Rom just fuck everything up like the unserious, overly ambitious kids they are.

Greg stood to inherit a ridiculous amount from his grandfather... Now he's going to be broke in New York

Imagine throwing away 250 MILLION DOLLARS for 200k a year

200K is a very average sum for someone in his position with access to the top tier of the organisation.

Tom is the winner. Outsider who played the game better than any of the Roy children minus Conor who didn’t give a shit and only cared about the money.

200k in New York is not alot for the type of places he has to be attending.

To think Greg gave up an inheritance

I feel like Tom in this scene more often than I care to admit. All the way down to the huge promotion. Death is perceived to be imminent, until you’re handed the keys to the kingdom. Then repeat cycle.

Shiv voted against Kendall because the siblings bonded over his confession he killed the waiter. Then lied in the finale and said he didn't. Shiv also wanted to save her marriage to Tom with baby coming..

Tom and Greg sitting in a tree KISSING

200k a year seems laughably low for a person in his role

working in advertising in nyc, shoulda been like 1.5 mil of his caliber

This triggered Greg into telling Ken.

I would love 200k a year I would be set for life lmao. Buuuut with how rich everyone else is around him I'd be feeling like 200k was chump change

Need that Disgusting Brothers spinoff series

See I assumed Tom Was talking monthly

“The highest paid assistant in history” 😂

Ewan was never going to give him the 250M. But like after all the blackmail and stuff he’s gone through to climb the latter that’s all he makes lol?

200k？？？ That is much lower than I expected. No wonder Greg wants to betray Tom.

My favorite scene in Succession was when Greg slapped Tom.. so brutal and looked real.

Not bad for a former mascot who threw up on the first day at work 😂

What was Greg’s title as of season 4?

Highest paid assistant in human history😂

I enjoy the series the missing part is the value of these resources never seem to be placed towards education practical skills or certifications. 200k and $5m dollar apartment Greg should be absorbing information investing in his own infrastructure and it’s dizzy to think that the inversion of this is a the poor man’s climb up the ladder that Tom’s or better Roman’s “Friend” in the parks department. They all reaping the fruits of others discipline and demands more control and opportunity based on unproven results. “Not Serious people”

Tom almost fucked himself here by saying this to Greg. He wouldnt have snitched if he didnt think he was getting his salary slashed with Mattson in charge.

He's come a long way from projectile vomiting out the eyes of the Doderick the Dog

I dont know why everybody thinks Ewan would have followed through with the inheritance. Also when is that old bastard going to die? It was an uncertain future for Greg

Roger ailes assistant made over 1 million a year.

A year? A month? In US you usually say the annual pay, but $200k (while it would be AMAZING for me) is not that much for a New Yorker who works for guys that own half the world.

$200k in nyc is nothing. Greg had Kendall’s apartment which is huge.

Isnt 40k per year almost fast food level of salary? I am not from US but 40k seems to be absurd, considering his position it is almost equal to get fired

Is $200k a lot of money? Sure. But it's also inconsistent with what we see in the series. You don't get your own office at fictional Fox News if you're only making $200k. It's also not what the "bottom of the top" makes at a company worth a little under $100 billion, AND Greg still had the owed favor from Logan, for the joint defense agreement. That would definitely give him a job with a much higher salary, but he didn't exercise it.

Very happy Tom won. Despite its flaws he is least miserable person in the show (with the big exception of Greg) Greg is such an innocent lovable goof. Someone I would be happy to see if my daughter brought him home.

Funny how ppl are thinking it's 200k/year

I think the pun here is that he's threatening him with 30k a month.

I could own a business in a poor country with 200k

Anyone know what happened to Greg’s inheritance? I know he was suing Greenpeace 😂

He never said a year, could be 200k a month

I’d gladly take 200k a year to take shit from Tom.

Isit me or does Tom secretly likes Gregg. He uses him to blow off steam and Gregg is quite good at taking it. I think Tom keeps him around because he generally likes him.

I think it’s 200k per month. No way would Greg stick for only 200k per year

I thought its by monthq

Poorest richest man

hes definitely talking hyperbole id bet Greg is getting probably like a 100k minimum. which obviously for the class of people hes hanging with probably doesnt feel great

200k = RD$10,800,000 YO GANANDO ESO AL MES MANDO A TODOS AL DIABLO 😂😂😂😂😂

Losses 250mm

All that lousy shit for 200 G's this world sucks

by month or year?

$200k??? way too low, seriously.

Funny how everyone thinks it's 200k a year, it's obviously a MONTH. 40k/y doesn't even get you a janitor in NY...

i think i per month

I think it’s 200 a month

It's a joke. I made that out of law school in 2010

I think it’s a month, that’s the joke

Way Underpaid

200 k?! He practically gets peanuts! I mean, compared to the type of money he's "surrounded" by.

Maybe one day I can earn 6 figures to do nothing 😆
