Valve Makes More Money Per Employee Than Amazon, Microsoft, and Netflix Combined
jjslash shares a report from TechSpot: A Valve employee recently provided PC Gamer with a rough calculation of the company’s per-employee income, revealing that Valve generates more money per person than several of the world’s largest companies. While the data is a few years old and doesn’t account for some significant recent trends in the tech sector, Valve’s ranking in this metric likely hasn’t shifted much over that time. Exact figures for Valve’s per-hour and per-employee net income remain redacted. However, a chart from 2018 confirms that Valve’s per-employee income exceeded that of companies like Facebook, Apple, Netflix, Alphabet/Google, Microsoft, Intel, and Amazon. Facebook ranks second with a high revenue per employee of $780,400 annually, or $89 per hour, surpassing competitors like Apple and Microsoft due to its relatively smaller workforce of under 70,000. Amazon, by contrast, with over 1.5 million employees, earns significantly less per employee at $15,892 annually, or $1.81 per hour.
