Measuring any "Random Tech Company" versus Apple on the metric of Revenue Per Employee is always going to be skewed in Apple's disfavor. Everyone always forgets the thousands of retail employees at Apple Stores which are obviously going to generate much less revenue than say Johnny Ive or the programmer's writing the next version of OSX.
- _delirium 16y agoValve is also really small compared to Apple (250 employees versus 50,000). If we're willing to compare among that level of size difference, then Mojang (of Minecraft fame) has better revenue per employee than Valve.
- ZachPruckowski 16y agoDoes it? "High Hundreds of Millions"/250 could be greater than or equal to $10M-$15M/7 employees.
- dorkitude 16y agoTrue, but Mojang grew 7x after most of that revenue ;)
