If we compare ffmpeg to a company (a dangerous comparison, as the goals of FFmpeg are quite different, but let us roll with it, and it is ma much better comparison than with a country), we should compare it to a small one, not a large one. And in a small company, as far as I know, employees do not usually get a say in the direction automatically. The founder keeps all the power, until they cede it to a successor. Small companies and small Libre Software projects are too vulnerable to a takeover by a small number of greedy people who care about what they can gain from it more than the well-being of the company/project.
