There could be a democratic structure in place where employees can elect internal representatives to conduct things and advocate for/against issues on their behalf; alternatively (and more Google's style) there could be a direct democracy vote on particular issues.

Wouldn't the most Google style thing be... "Liquid Democracy with Google Votes" [1] ;) ?

The deep question though is: should employees of a corporation have a say in its governance ?

Views from anyone in Germany would be interesting, as they seem to have a particular system for this. [2]
