After 7 pm, I prefer phone to Zoom: Aparna Bawa

Aparna Bawa was the only executive at Zoom Video Communications (Zoom) to receive a base salary increase (from $312,500 to $400,000) in the last fiscal, as a result of her promotion to the role of chief operations officer (COO) — a first for the San Jose, California-based company. Bawa was also awarded a hefty compensation of $10.62 million as part of her promotion in June 2020.

In addition to the COO’s role, Bawa is also the interim chief legal officer of Zoom, both of which make her responsible for oversight of the people's experience, government relations, security, privacy, compliance, trust and safety, and legal functions.
