Employees cost more than their wage/salary. The numbers you provide accommodate poverty-level compensation. I don't think that would be better.


As a global company Facebook is not bound to pay US workers US wages. Around 300$/month is the Median wage for a call center job in India. They could pay ~3x as much and sill have plenty left over for the overhead involved.

Even just assigning call centers based on the callers country of origin would be dramatically cheaper than US wages for everyone.
