From the perspective of the users/customers/people the harm was done to, the company is the abstraction that they deal with. Companies can be hit with a billion/trillion dollar judgment. The injured parties don't care which executive at the company will get a smaller bonus this year -- they're not unfairly blaming. Separate from that, if there's laws and regulations, the company could also be hit with fines. Officials could also investigate individual culpability for bad behavior by people within they company, but that possibility doesn't mean that any kind of holding companies responsible would be unfair.
