Head Partner Selling GP Stake

Outside of the "top guy", is there any benefit of this for the rest of the PE organization (junior Partners, MDs, VP/Principals)? Seems like its all bad for them.

Basically is the richest guy in the firm climbing up the ladder and pulling it up behind him.

Have folks ever seen the team thats actually doing the work "revolt" when head partner sells GP stake?
