Enterprise CIOs saw biggest gains as IT salaries inched up in 2012

If CIOs are on the way out, why are CIO salaries spiking? IT salaries, too... Fact is CIOs are not on the way out... 

"Large-enterprise CIOs saw particularly significant gains in terms of base pay, a 6.04 percent boost up to an average of $182,210. CIOs at midsized enterprises saw a pay boost of 1.6 percent, up to $165,820. The report did not include specifics on bonuses, which hit upward of $7 million at the largest companies in 2011; it just noted that they remained steady year over year."
