PMC and workers are not allies
EDIT: in most successful teams I know manager and team are in the same boat
PMC are in the same boat in that they're not the owners but they do serve their interests
I've seen examples where the objectives of the management and the teams are sufficiently aligned by the owners to create win-win situations.
Yes, it's not that typical, but it's possible.
also bosses will never be truly aligned with workers unless it’s from power workers have taken. a wage doesn’t provide the class mobility that ownership and exploitation does.
