I would be interested in more summary statistics rather than just mean (NIPE), particularly median. What story is actually being told by this data, that tobacco growth and sales are highly automated and they employ relatively few people, or that execs are disproportionately compensated relative to other industries, or what?
- qwerty2020 9y agoAuthor here -- boxplot distribution is in the article. Also, any story I could string together would definitely be speculative, so just stuck to the few facts I know for purposes of article. Will speculate here, however :) -- I'm going to guess primary driver is efficient manufacturing coupled with simple product offering. (e.g. this isn't some Tech company employing X% of it's workforce for R&D purposes)
