I would never have guessed that an app like signal would spend almost 20 million in salaries. I wonder what is the salary of the executives.
It's not only salaries:
Still, the cost equals almost 400 000 dollars per employee. That is a LOT of money. Even half that (twice the employees or half the cost) would still be a lot.
Yes, I agree it's a lot.
I think that with "recruiting" and "HR services" they mean outsourced services, so maybe not all of it goes directly to the employees.
