If every company that offers goods or services prioritizes "worker happiness", by for instance refusing to excise unproductive divisions, then the result will be a world where everything costs more and takes longer. Not just consumer goods, but any sort of public infrastructure project, R&D, etc. If you think it takes too long or costs too much to build a school or fix a road in America these days compared to a few generations ago, it would only get worse. Every single sector of the economy would start dragging its feet with no regard for efficiently getting shit done.
If only some companies are coops, then those have to compete with companies that aren't and consequently they have to work efficiently or fail. The idea behind making them all be coops seems to be removing this pressure to perform. Bad idea.
