They are not part of the proletariat. They serve as protectors of private property as part of the capitalist state. That's their whole goal. Just as managers are considered petty-bourgeois since they act on behalf of the bourgeoisie, regardless of whether they own MoP.

The petit bourgeoisie are capital owners who still have to work that capital themselves because their holdings aren't enough to fully passively live off of. Managers are either PMC or workers with extra paperwork, depending on the case.
