This just shows that you don't really need 50K employees to make what Google does. You just need a few hundred brilliant ones who churn out something that makes super normal profits and carries the rest of the thousands of employees through. The rest of the staff will surely do something useful, but it could be just like finding the best screws to secure the covering of the already functioning nuclear reactor.
