Organizations are not people. It is very straightforward for an individual to change their ways from bad to good. We should have mutual empathy and forgiveness towards each other. Conversely, it is typically very difficult for organizations to change course (keep in mind the spokesperson has no real power and a strong incentive to lie) and there is zero reason to feel bad if people abandon them. The people who work there perhaps, but there should be no mourning for an entity that exists only as a legal construct.

It is possible for organizations to change course, but it usually requires a crisis or disaster to occur which pushes the drive for change.

The book "The Power of Habit" has some good examples of large organizations changing course.
