Fire departments aren't a great example because their bound to municipalities and I'm pretty sure the IAFF is the firefighter mafia.
There are exceptions, of course, but America is a bourgeois dictatorship. Some form of democratic organization would not face the same issues.
There actually was a fire department run like a corporation once. It was run exactly like you figured it would be.
