Yes, the photo belongs to the company. However, they still need explicit 
release to use an image in which I am recognizable.

I'll give an example drawn from my own experience, crew on a movie set 
are often photographed, or even asked to serve as extras.  They already 
have a contract to "work-for-hire" in most cases, HOWEVER, they now must 
sign a release of use for name and likeness, for the production company 
to be able to USE that image or film.  Copyright is a necessary 
pre-condition of lawful use, but only ONE pre-condition.  In many 
instances you need a release as well.
