No company that consists of a single employee and a CEO has an income ratio of 360:1. I agree that the current ratio is immoral, but the meme is nonsense.
Yes, in order to make this fully accurate, you need a picture of the 1° slice and another of the 360° slice, but in the grand scheme, it doesn’t matter if the CEO is getting 359 or 360 times your wage, the issue remains the same

Fixed it for you
Only when you insist on applying nonsense hypotheticals such as yours and then pretending that they’re the norm.

It’s only nonsense because pizza implies pie chart which implies a sum to 100%.
Good example of How to Lie With Statistics.
Well it works in this case, as you take 1° of the 360° circle, so the ratio works for a pie chart
Nope. If you remove a 1 degree slice, you’re left with a 359 degree slice.

A 0.99° slice, while symbolically even more miserable, is effectively indistinguishable from a 1° slice.
