revenue or earnings per employee doesn't mean much. It just means you have a business model with contracts out manufacturing or sells through outside distributors or whatever. Note, however, that I don't take issue with your conclusion! > As far as stock value is concerned CSCO is the best > value for the buck. CSCO revenue per employee is > atleast 3x of any other comparable companys'. > Ascend has excellent revenue per employee as well.

The Voice and wireless world splits into many compartments. Cisco flat owns the networking business, that is why they are so much more profitable that the others. People think that they compete with Lucent, but Lucent is strong in the Voice world. They don't have as good a franchise as Cisco has in networking, but Lucent is so tight with the baby bells that it gives them almost the same advantage. Sure there are overlaps, and they will go after each others business, but the bottom line that will feed the stock price is in the above areas.
