S-Corporations, like regular C Corporations, can decide to retain their net profits as operating capital. However, all profits are considered as-if they were distributed to shareholders. Thus an S-Corporation shareholder might be taxed on income they never received. (Whereas a shareholder of C-corporation is taxed on dividends only when those dividends are actually paid out.)
S-Corp must pay officers salary. It must be reasonable, and not below minimum wage - http://taxes.about.com/od/scorporations/qt/reasonable_comp.htm
