If there was 100% (or majority) employee ownership, would the employees not have the ability to use the general meeting process to eject board members they didn’t like? Aren’t employees voting for nominees to the board, allowing them to use a write-in process to bypass a hostile board?

Both were 100% employee owned.

>would the employees not have the ability to use the general meeting process to eject board members they didn’t like?

Lol, no.

Trust me, it would have happened if it were possible at one, the board was public enemy #1 among rank-and-file employees.

>Aren’t employees voting for nominees to the board, allowing them to use a write-in process to bypass a hostile board?

Lol, no. The board itself selects board members.

I'm not exaggerating, we literally had zero input on anything.
