You're comparing employment at a single factory to employment at an entire company, though. There are lots of jobs at Chobani that aren't factory jobs. And Nabisco has a much higher total employment count as well.

I too would love to see a breakdown of exactly how big each department of a given company is. I have no reason to suspect that they employ significantly more people than necessary though; the profit motive gives good reason to avoid doing that.
