I don't think you can compare a software shop to one of the most used websites globally that has become recognized by major media.

I don't know why they need 900+ employees though, there are probably good reasons for it.

Well I used the term software shop loosely. Both are fairly large in their reach nationally. The one I worked at did hosting in the building as well. No more than half a dozen on the IT staff, hosting hundreds of clients who had numerous employees. Obviously no millions, but they had what I would say is a lot more complicated product.
