If you had asked me how many employees Reddit has, I definitely would have guessed a number between 30 and 60 total. What on Earth do all of these people do??

60 is way too low for the scale they have.

Lot of tech folks needed and support IT staff to keep the site running. You'd be surprised how many even non-tech companies have to keep services running (well, the good ones at least - rest overwork their folks)
