Google's revenue in 2022 was $280 billion. 1% of that would be $2.8 billion, and Google had 190000 employees at the time. I'm pretty sure the average wage of those employees is not $14,736, so Varoufakis would appear to be off by at least a factor of 10x.

On the other hand, if Google did pay out 80% of revenues, the average Google paycheck would be a cool $1,178,947.
