Bombardier Did 'A Bad Job' Explaining Multimillion-Dollar Raises: CEO<br /><br /> Bombardier did "a bad job'' explaining its decision to raise executive compensation, but the company has listened to the public and is now ready to turn the page, CEO Alain Bellemare says.<br /><br />In an interview, Bellemare acknowledged that Bombardier underestimated the anger that would erupt over the pay hikes, which were to come as it was issuing pink slips to thousands of employees while receiving federal and provincial assistance.<br /><br />"It's all on us at Bombardier,'' he said.
