We learned just how small Valve really is this year, but also how good it is at raking in the cash: It's making more money per employee than Apple (www.pcgamer.com)

Is that just clever wording or are the employees actually seeing bigger checks?

[-] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 7 points 6 months ago

It's being phrased as an ROI per employee "asset", not as compensation per actual employee.

Gabe is pocketing most of this.

It's not 'clever wording', it says what it is - dividing profit by the number of employees results in a higher number for valve.
The heading isn't comparing employee paychecks,it's about overall company performance.
