The criticism should be directed at the concept of a corporation itself, then at making more money. It's not just the profit motive, it's the discourse and the tools that go around it that are even more of a problem. For instance short term thinking, price cutting, the management and employee hierarchy. Focus on form rather than function in terms of concepts like professionalism (or better labeled as a psychological disorder of forcing people to act like machines). The whole way that we think about these things needs reform. Corporations are machines for distributing power to a certain group of people who are in touch with the capital owners, the shareholders rather than the stakeholders. This is usually at the detriment of everyone involved, other than the shareholders and their managers. The ultimate goal of such arrangement is for the reduction of the power, well-being, happiness, and contentment of the stakeholders for the financial benefit of the shareholders.
