At some size, somewhere around 100-1000 employees perhaps, corporations lose their humanity, the sociopaths move to the top and the race to the botttom begins, IMHO.
Amongst lower-paying employers, SMEs (small- and medium- enterprises) generally provide better quality jobs. This is because they haven't lost their humanity yet and somebody there actually cares about their employees. They often have more opportunities for advancement and learning, possibly because roles are less well-defined and smaller orgs tend to need more generalists.
If we really want to help the average consumer, we should offer incentives to SME's rather than mega-corp's.
Obviously, this is just in my experience and I have 0 data to back this up.

Those are overwhelmingly big rich corps. The most successful politicians are those who can implement what lobbyists want and frame it in a way that makes general populace consider it to be positive.
