"An evil corporation is a term which frequently appears in science fiction and or dystopian works to refer to corporations that ignore ethics, morality, laws and social responsibility in order to make a profit for its shareholders."

Just thought everybody should know.

Do you work for an Evil Corporation? Do you know anybody that works for an Evil Corporation?

Would you work for an Evil Corporation?

Are people that work at Evil Corporations evil people?

Any company that goes public and takes on Shareholders is immediately evil.

Once shareholders are involved, nothing else matters.

  • Giving your employees a raise will make the shareprice rise slightly less than it would have? Fuck you...no raises.
  • Providing Healthcare means a lower profit margin which will hurt the share price? Fuck you...die in a ditch.
  • Paying a living wage means having to take something from the CEO's bonus that year? Fuck you...that's what food banks are for.

The moment shareholders enter the picture, by LAW, they become the only entity that matters. Corporations are legally required to increase shareholder profitability by any means necessary.

Welcome to Capitalism.
