  to compare, Reddit has like, 5. Digg is overfunded.

    But to be fair, Reddit is able to leverage the infrastructure of Conde Nast. The 5 employees doesn't count HR, accounting, administration, etc. Of course, that probably doesn't necessitate 65 extra employees either...

      Come on, you don't need any of those (as departments) when you're 5 people. What 5 person firm has any need for HR, accounting, admin, etc. that they can't get covered by outsourcing for less than the cost of a 6th person, let alone another 65 people?

        Reddit employees receive Conde benefits such as health insurance. Real estate is also taken care of. They've also admitted that they might be able to pull a higher salary at a different company, but they're passionate about reddit.

        I'm with you on HR, but I can very much imagine a 5 person company needing someone in accounting, a lot of staying solvent is keeping the money flowing. So, that brings us up to... 6 :)
