So you'd rather they were smarter and able to hide the traces of their malicious behaviour?

The real problem here is the complete absence of any kind of ethics. It sounds like the kind of place where if you consider ethics to be a blocker you'd be laughed out of the room, or fired. Corporate culture is to chase profit above anything else. It's especially bad in software, though, as so many people don't even seem to think about the ethical implications of their actions ever.
