They both agreed that they were working together and Saruman would assume to be the vassel of Sauron if the ring were recovered and M-E conquered. This was the plan on paper. In reality they were each using each other and each thought they had the upper-hand. However Sauron had the mastery. In other words they proclaimed their alligence to on another, or at least Sauron accepted Saruman's aid and offered rewards in return, but as most evil villains will do they would betray each other in the end. So I would argue that Saruman did have some powers yes but they were insignificant next to Mordor and was in fact a puppet to Sauron.
