The compensation of an employee, to a certain extent, indeed represents his ability, so the more employees and the higher their compensation, the more reported data there is.
High-salary employees are more capable, so they report more data, which seems reasonable.
But often, high-salary employees are not necessarily strong; they could also be parasites of the company.
For example, some companies thrive after laying off all their executives.
Many low-salary employees may not lack ability, but simply because they are not in certain positions, they have no stage to show their talent.
In the game, the data pop-up is a blatant distraction.
According to the game rules, if there is one employee with a monthly salary of 7000 and seven employees with a monthly salary of 1000, the latter actually contributes much more to the probability of data pop-ups than the former.
Because although the amounts are the same, the number of people is significantly more.
