Something interesting to consider

The Armed Forces labor to instill esprit de corps and comradeship amongst their members, e.g. 'We are strongest as a team and nobody gets left behind.'

By contrast the three Nikita films and the TV series share a common weakness: How can a threatening organization expect quality performance and loyalty from its agents? Continuous internal threats would naturally weaken agents' morale. When crisis occurs, threatened agents cannot run to the threatening organization. Even though agents are under the threat of death and, in a sense, have nowhere to run, the threatening nature of the agency itself creates disloyal dissenters who will eventually seek escape, unless of course they're total mindless automatons like 'The Cleaner' (Keitel).
