Sincere to me just means that you are being truthful, or not trying to be deceptive.

And I think companies can be sincere - because companies are really just groups of people and assets when you get down to the nuts and bolts of it.

> companies can be sincere

"sincere", "honest", "hypocritical" usually refers to a long-term pattern. Being able to be sincere from time to time is besides the point.

> companies are really just groups of people

...with profit as their first priority.

For-profit companies "can be sincere" only as long as it's the most profitable strategy.
