    That sounds nuts at first… but then…
    160k since 2017, which 7 years ago.
    They have about 1500 employees.
    That’s about $15 per employee per year.

    I don’t know enough about this organization to pass judgement and I guess it depends how else they spend money, who goes to these events, etc. but $15/year/head isn’t necessarily as crazy as the headline sounds.
