the issue is, the site itself they could run with 10% of current employees and they would have funds to run it for years without threatening donation banners each year
Here is a list of their employees: https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Staff_and_contractors
Perhaps they could tighten their belt a little bit, but to think that you can run a foundation with the size and scope of Wikimedia with ~30 employees is naive at best.
Like I said, I value what they provide and will continue to donate.
