    Valve has the sweetest of all business models: do almost nothing, make tons of money. They have so few employees.

      Well, isn’t Valve a company with pretty much no hierarchy where everyone is mostly equal, bar Gabe?

      I mean, due to their structure, I can see an excuse for them.

        Valve is a company that garnishes 30% of all video games sales. It doesn’t matter what their corporate structure is at that point. It could be two guys with buckets on their heads and they’d make bank.

      they save money by laying all the work on the low amount of employees they have rather than hiring more people, its probably skeleton crewed. thats probably why they make so money there, dont want to spread around.
