Glenn Tilton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glenn Tilton (born April 1948 in Washington, DC) is the Chairman, President, and CEO of UAL Corporation, the parent company of United Airlines. He has held this role since September 2002, 3 months before UAL Corp. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. He came to UAL from ChevronTexaco, where he was working since 1970.
He attracted the scorn of corporate ethics watchdogs for awarding himself a $366,000 bonus in 2004 and negotiating a deal in 2005 for upper management to receive $115 million of preferred stock if the company ever emerges from bankruptcy proceedings.[1]
Tilton is married and has two children. He lives in Chicago.
