Yeah I guess I was a bit imprecise, it is of course a private company not a worker cooperative or something. But I do recall (from reading about it some years back) that the employees are so fiercely loyal because they are extremely well compensated, have a lot of say within the company, and iirc they also get shares in the company after some time, meaning they also get part of the profits.
