Valve's Small Team: Big Impact with Just 350 Employees
Valve, the company behind the dominant PC gaming platform Steam, operates with a surprisingly small workforce of around 350 employees. Despite its modest size, Valve generates significant revenue, comparable to industry giants like EA, which employs over 13,000 people. Leaked data from a court case reveals insights into Valve's employee distribution, showing a stable headcount with a majority in the Games department, even as the company releases fewer new games. The Hardware department, responsible for products like the Steam Deck, remains small but impactful.
