I don't see that getting implemented in an engineering company.

There are employee owned companies out there given the economics of creating an engineering company, but I don't see a co-op format scaling. At most, it is going to be employees choosing leadership.

Google Mondragon corporation and you can see a co op scaling up over history. You dont have to imagine, it's already happened and you can read about it.

Edit: and here's all their industrial co-ops under the one large Mondragon co-op. https://www.mondragon-corporation.com/en/we-do#negocioIndustria
