  Or in words: each of Google, Apple, and Microsoft make enough profit per man-year that they could double their salaries without becoming unprofitable.

    If you assume that they can hire for example a 1000 more engineers and receive the same about of "profit per employee", then this is correct. But in reality "hire more people, increase revenue/profit" isn't remotely as simple...

      No, I was assuming they can raise salaries for their current employees without affecting productivity levels.
