They do get paid a percentage tho.

Unless the company is an ESOP, they do not, they get paid an hourly wage or a salary. If the company becomes more profitable, they do not see a consummate increase In their compensation.

Where do you think the wages materialize? They get paid out of the product sold. Literally every time you buy something the company uses that money to compensate their workers for their time and skill.

The wages’s do come out of the profit.
Profit is revenue minus expenses. Wages are part of expenses.
Wages are used to ensure that people working there are able to keep working there, covering day day expenses of the workers.
Wages rarely reflect the real value of the effort put in by the people working at the company. They reflect the cost to the worker of choosing to work at the company.
I think that workers at a company should be payed some percentage of the profit of the company, with financiers and investors receiving some percentage of the profit in turn.
