Then don't work for those companies.

Ones goal in life should not be to get exploited at shitty startups as a "rank and file" developer (aka chump).

Some parts of companies can be corporate and still have some other very good parts.

All being said, if at that stage of a job offer, you don't want to be looking like the most important thing to you are your options. If you get a decent salary and like the work, you are not being exploited.
