His style of management is effective because it’s fear based and slave driverish. Fortunately in this case he can get people to work purely on the basis of the ideals and lofty goals they are working towards.

The same way the video game industry has bad pay with bad work conditions because there's a steady flow of people wanting to make games, even if only as a tiny cog in a massive machine. Or how teachers or nurses are paid poorly, because enough people want to do it anyways. Which isn't supposed to be an endorsement of any of this. Ethically it's very questionable, but it is a logical outcome in our flavor of capitalism.
