Self organising is rarely successful in my experience.

People don't like to be held accountable unless they're paid for it, so you end up with yes men and potentially the extroverts or narcissists of the group ruling the roost and making final decisions.

That is basically middle management with less oversight, no salary and less micromanaging.

In a company that makes pharmaceuticals that's probably not a great idea unless you're just about cutting the short term costs.
