Government jobs are generally seen as secure but low paying. But in Montgomery County, high ranking employees are paid quite well. Overall, 27 county employees earned $200,000 or more in 2014.
Here are the 15 highest paid county employees. The salary and overtime pay figures were taken from the county’s dataMontgomery web portal, which lists the salaries for all county employees, except those employed by Montgomery County Public Schools.
The employees are ranked by gross pay, which includes base salary, overtime pay and additional pay such as bonuses.
Notably missing from the list is Montgomery County's highest ranking official–County Executive Ike Leggett. Leggett received $184,976.85 in gross pay in 2014, which puts him as the 50th highest paid employee in the county.
