As of 2021, Valve employees made roughly $430K-4.5M, depending on role. Not bad, considering the average salary in WA is around $58k.

Interesting. Looks like the hardware people are the lowest paid department.
Which maybe makes sense. They've started to see some success there, but not the way Steam or TF2 has.
They’re around a big city, so the Seattle metro is about $76k. Still great for the valve employees though.
Holy shit
