...that there are mixed results about what, exactly, say-on-pay votes accomplish. In the U.K. there have been some resounding successes - most notably GlaxoSmithKline, which revamped its pay practices, aligning compensation with performance, after a "no" vote of 50.7% in 2003. (Its CEO at the time was on track to earn about $18 million.)
