Google makes $210K profit per employee
 

From Pingdom:

Google had $209,624 in profit per employee in 2008, which beats all the other large tech companies we looked at, including big hitters like Microsoft, Apple, Intel and IBM.

Fucking sweet. I wonder how this compares with online casino or adult programs. Regardless, refreshing numbers to see during a recession.

that makes sense when the bulk of their revenue is ad dollars.

Is that just dividing the $$$ by employees?

You nailed it--Google's two pronged approach of continuously developing both their search and advertising capabilities led them to avoid Yahoo's problems. Yahoo stumbled after casting itself primarily as a media company.

It'd be more interesting to see figures for 2009 :pimp

Nice.....

Any Google figure.. in terms of stocks, dollars spent or earned and even monies made from employees (also monies earned lol)... make me hard ... I have a google fetish ...

... I better start banging one of them sexe datacenters :)

Interesting numbers

big ballin

shows they run a tight ship....

Crazy numbers !!!

that`s fucking crazy

I don't see nothing crazy there...

wow its discussting

I want that money!!!!!

Those are all huge companies that are a part of the oligopoly in their branch.

With huge market share and extremely specifically defined processes, risk management analysis in place etc.

Practically, they're build for the scenario, that a certain part of employees doesn't have to produce or can even fuck up, and they will still not suffer any major blow that could endanger essential processes as the manufacturing / delivery / etc.

Nothing that could notably endanger the revenues from inside the company.

I would be interested to see what numbers can the most successful small companies pull.

That is some pretty big money

that is nice!

that's just coins.. :D

Damn,that's good:)

nice :2 cents:

Pretty much. Also, keeping an eye on the ball. One could argue that, at the core, they are an ad company with a solid search service to draw in the traffic.

god damn, that's immense

nice :)

bump for the information
