Usually irrelevant noise, I'm a realist - the company I work for is big, there will be people who oppose what it does, how it operates, even it's very existance. Granted there are genuine reasons why you'd want to cut bigtech out your life, it isn't an ambition I share. To answer another part of your question - I strongly believe in my mission, I consider what I do at Google helps people, that said I'm not deluded, I'm partly helping to sell ads, but that doesn't detract from my primary objectives or the beneficial impact of my work.
