    Total cost of employment is something like 140-160% of salary for a software dev. So my super handwavy half pulled out of my ass math puts it closer to 20 jr. engineers.

      In France it’s more like 200%. minimum. Which is why our salaries are so shit when compared with US ones.

      But the new trend is hiring interns which are much cheaper, work twice as hard, and come with tax deductions.
