It is not illegal. Privacy is not an absolute right. The annual salary of Orange's CEO is 2.67 million Euros. Most countries require that publicly traded companies disclose the salaries of senior management. They are accountable to their investors and the general public.

You can't have accountability when the people in charge only disclose the aggregate figure in order to shield from scrutiny.
