Does anyone know how they use their 300 million? They could have a thousand software engineers working on their product, which is probably more than what Google

  As a non-profit, the large focus would be on growing to further their mission. Of course, they're not simply just going to hire a thousand engineers in a weekend. Recruiting takes a lot of time and manpower. Mozilla is currently around 600 employees and projected to double within the next year. And only a portion of actually work on the Firefox platform, Google and MS throw multitudes more engineers at their browsers.

    There's also the facilities, advertising, etc. 300mi seems rapidely small at this scale. Firefox for Android did progress enormously as well. I'm not sure all the other decisions were good tho (Firefox OS for example, even thus it makes sense mission-wise, it probably not the best idea for the money)
