There is a structural disadvantage but it isn't that. It is a company hires people, whose job it is to make the company more efficient and profitable, and to do so, you need to set things up so no employee can be in a powerful position. For example tech choices so "Use Java and X Framework we can easily hire people", and such like. Keep it plug an play. To the point where it is seen as immoral to do things 'for job security', whilst the company itself might do this to it's customers. I think this affects things more than negotiation.
