It's probably mor like 1/2 that (engineers). I live in Champaign (Wolfram's HQ), and know several current and former employees.
Mathematica development is split into two main groups. The Math Kernel group has about 20-30 engineers, and the FE group is around 10-15. There's a handfull of developers floating around that work on mathlink (a communication lib that allows external apps to hook into the math kernel).
Overall, they're actually a fairly efficient company. I can't speak to the current state of their finances, but I do know that about ten years ago (just after Methematica 5) they were running at about $24M gross anual revenue for the U.S, about $30M for asia, and $12M for U.K.
