But this article is about market cap not revenue. But even revenue is almost meaningless for the things you mention -- it's profit per employee which would be interesting. And for that, tech companies are nowhere near the top.
Check this https://airleasecorp.com/press/air-lease-corporation-announc... they made 753.6M in 2023 with 163 employees or 4.6M per employee. No one comes even close. No one.
I believe Fannie Mae is the second who made 17400 with 8100 people or 2.17M per employee.
To compare, nVidia made 4368 with 29600.
Tether beats your example by 10x or $45m profit per employee.
Probably the Sicilian mob too. So what? Criminal enterprises do not count.
Re:Nvidia is now worth $102M per employee

If you take their latest quarters results ($6B profit) you get $220k/employee per quarter or $880k/year
I'm not claiming that applies to Nvidia either way specifically, but it's a good sign in the generic:
1. They're efficient.
2. They've avoided the curse of overhiring (hi, Google!)
3. They can stay afloat even if business drops a lot.
