Power once gained tends to be used. Google makes a lot of money, that translates into a lot of power, and that is going to be used to the advantage of Google's stakeholders, whether in soft ways or hard. That's not to say that all big and powerful companies do really obnoxious things. There are definitely differences between the morally compromised and the truly evil. But the tendency is toward worse, not better. If you have a problem with that, you need to find an employer that is on the smaller side or in a market where there are lots of competitors. That way, the company just can't push around others all that much. But a company like that is probably running on very lean margins, so it can't afford to be generous to its employees.
