You certainly seem to be arguing just to argue. You’re comparing Valve to the companies you choose to work for or the median German company, but those are irrelevant. You’re using the wrong reference set.

Valve is a global, revenue-dominant, platform-level technology company. In its category, 300 employees is extremely small.

Valve is not a German company, so that’s an odd context, but if you want to use Germany for reference, here are the five German companies with the closest revenue to Valve’s:

- Infineon Technologies, $16.4B revenue, 57,000 employees

- Evonik Industries, $16B, 31,930 employees

- Covestro, $15.2B, 17,520 employees

- Commerzbank, $14.6B, 39,000 employees

- Zalando, $12.9B, 15,793 employees
