The reason this is a conflict is that if profits are not managed democratically (as in a worker's cooperative), then they will be extracted as profits for a small oligopoly (the owners) who can choose by their whim who gets a piece of that profit.
Very often that's buddies in their back-scratching kickback network, with a smattering of highly productive workers.
