It's a company, it doesn't and cannot care about anything other than profit.
- crispyporkbites 6y agoA company is just a group of people working together. It can care about whatever those people choose to care about.
- dunefox 6y agoThat has nothing to do with the position of the company, though. The employees can care about what they want.
- akg_67 6y agoCompanies used to serve multiple stakeholders that included, employees who worked for them, communities they were present in, customers they served, etc. in addition to stock holders. Slowly, slowly, the definition of stakeholders has been shrunk and reduced to stock holders and responsibilities reduced to maximizing profit. Of course these stakeholders and responsibilities are being further reduced slowly slowly to where companies only exist to benefit large shareholders and corporate executives. I am guessing you might be young and may not be aware of history of corporations.
- krotton 6y agoIt does. If the employees of the company have a coherent stance on something, that's exactly what the company's stance is.

- WanderPanda 6y agoThey need to care about their customers to make profit?!
- 908087 6y agoNo, they only need to make their customers believe they care about them.
