> The company counted an average of only 42 employees in 2023, down from 61 two years earlier. During the year, it generated $31MM in net revenue per employee (13-28x that of Amazon, Apple, Google, and Microsoft) and $15.5MM in operating profit (27-560x).

This is the wildest part. One company that is proving all the "why does <company> need 10000 engineers?" takes true.

It does not. These companies do not even work in the same problem space. Amazon works in retail, cloud, book publishing, etc. Microsoft maintains their own cloud as well and a complete operating system.

At least compare it to companies with similar businesses. I would argue twitch seems closer. I think they had over 1000 employees. You would have a better point with that comparison if you would want to make that argument.
