Apologies for changing the title; from my stint in finance I have an aversion to the word "talent" as a synonym for "employee".

I really wish this inforgraphic used arrow widths proportional to the ratio sizes. It's very hard to extract the data from a passing glance at the graphic; instead, we have to painstakingly read every single ratio written on the arrows. We have no idea which arrow is in fact the largest.

Disappointing.

(I guess Tufte has taught be a lot already)

That's a good idea.

I was using the colors for that purpose (e.g., it's overwhelmingly blue, meaning there's an overall flux into facebook), although as I understand it colors are not great for conveying information.

Ah I didn't realize you had made the graphic. I hope I did not come across too disparagingly.

In the steady-state, almost everyone will be working at Facebook ;-)
