But employee salaries are a natural expense for any business during normal operation. I imagine the assets/employee ratio would be at the very least a decent indicator of corporate health. Of course it's not the only indicator but if you have other ideas, please feel free to suggest other possible indicators.

It's a indication of their health, but keeping the jobs isn't a necessity to keep the company afloat. But certainly depending on the costs to fire an employee it may hold more or less significance.

So you agree that my math IS an indicator of health?

In a way I can take it at face value and in some cases you could say that Nintendo is a lot better because their profit per employee is very high.

Profit per employee? I'm not sure what you mean by this.
