I’m not arguing either way but would point out:

1/ Drawing a salary is profit sharing.

2/ Keeping your job is a reward.

People still get paid when companies don't turn a profit.

Salary is a maximally derisked profit sharing scheme. You get much less money that you could've earned in times of company's success, in exchange for a stable income even if the company is not successful.

It feels like we’re splitting hairs a little. In the context of my comment on the parent, profit and revenue are the same thing. After all, if you share 100% of your profit in another sense your company makes no profit at the end of the year.

The point is: once your livelihood depends on being part of an organisation, your judgement about that org can’t be completely impartial.
