Most companies are evil in some way, the question is how evil and how close you are to the evil. Most people will pick "not that evil but pays a lot". A few will take "pretty evil and pays more than a lot". Some will choose "less evil and pays poorly". (It's worth noting that there are a lot of jobs that are not at the Pareto frontier and are "more evil and pay worse" but social mobility etc. cause them to be selected anyway).
if you want to make the world a better place as OP stated perhaps you can get a normal job in maybe less evil corp?

When presented with a choice between:
1. Take a job making $$$$$$$ at a company making the world worse.
2. Take a job making $$$ at a company not making the world worse.
Very few people have a personality such that they'll pick 2.
exactly what I was asking OP, her/his comment sounded like people will pick the later (I agree with you)
