I initially understood it as the company owning the employee and thought to myself "that sounds like slavery with extra steps", but I see now that they mean the the employees have stock in the company.

Not “have stock in,” they are the only shareholders. This employees determine the destiny of the company and who their bosses are.

Don't mind me, just casually dropping pro-slavery content in work reform
