    employee-owned

    is such a euphemism, in my opinion. Law firms are often “employee-owned”.

    It has internal shareholders, they’re not a co-op, and should be viewed like any other for profit business.

        Oh yeah, no issue with how you’ve used it. I’m just publically grumbling about the term’s existence haha
