Why does no one run a completely employee owned tech company? What is the disincentive for modeling your company as employee-owned and operated? It seems that would be the best path to an efficient company and a focused company that’s not angled to be taken over by outside aggressive for profit interest and dismantling.
I’m guessing that no investor will back a company that they can’t sell for Y times the investment.

Thank you for the thoughtful replies everyone. I totally spaced the idea that I was asking this question on HN, a VC owned forum. I am glad that it was not interpreted as flame war baiting.
