>Whether or not there was an agreement, that doesn't mean one party can't be exploiting the other.

This idea of "exploitation" is frivolous. When I buy a loaf of bread from the store for $5, it means I prefer having the bread over having the $5. I'm not exploiting the store: mutatis mutandus, the store prefers having $5 over having the loaf of bread. It's the same with an employee and an employer voluntarily exchanging labor for money.
