> Show me a large enough company and there will be a history
The specificity of your comment (large enough company) is misleading. The flaws you call out are everywhere, not just large companies.
Humans are imperfect. Human organizations and institutions (companies of all sizes, governments of all types, schools, churches, and so on) are also imperfect.
I don't mean to say that we shouldn't set high goals, devise mechanisms to deal with imperfection and so on (checks and balances, regulations, etc), just that there isn't anything particularly unique about "large companies" in this regard.
