OK, so the costs of running Facebook from a pure employee point of view are smaller than Yahoo. I wouldn't be so sure...

- Swannie 16y agoYou'd hope so! I know most of Facebook would be classed as engineers, vs. a lot of Yahoo as sales, support, etc. But really? 1/10th the employees, you'd expect their salary bill would be less.
- borism 16y agodon't forget the stock options
- Swannie 16y agoIt might be an naive assumption, but aren't shares for options usually set aside relatively early in the process? Interesting comment, just provoked me to do a little research, as I had initially thought that stock options would be accounted as a future liability, and only a cost, at their strike price, when vested AND executed.
