I mean working somewhere like Qualcomm or Microsoft when you care about FOSS, democracy, and the public commons, or a weapons manufacturer for a military that invades other countries and kills innocent people in their homes.

Yeah, a lot of people in this thread are delusional. Any big company is up to shady shit, you only need to dig deep enough to find it.
In my last job, I was stonewalled hard when I cautiously inquired why a huge 1st world company, selling seemingly innocuous products, had so much “value creation” done in 3rd world countries. If you live anywhere in the world, including Antarctica, you probably have some stuff of said company in your home right now.
As it turned out, they were taking advantage of the lack of regulation and/or enforcement in these countries, big time. The worst thing to me were all these smokescreens, the schmoozing with politicians and the goody two-shoes image they created to hide all of this.
