Online Gambling company with several major brands under our belt. it's not evil but many consider it so and I've even been attacked on here for working for them (while trying to help someone out who's partner was addicted).
Do you work for an 'evil' company?

Mine also runs its own charity, unless it's a lucrative tax hole then I presume they would be seen as a good company. Never seen them mentioned on the forums either.

I work for a bank so those without money think we're evil.

Military. Some people seem to think we're evil, but most of us are pansies and are far more disorganised than you could ever imagine.

I don't work in oil and gas, but I have heard it from the horses mouth the industry is as evil as it is rumoured to be. Profiteering with no regard for environmental or social impact.
I used to work for one of those evil companies that organisations outsource their work to.
It was definitely an evil company. Their entire organisation revolved around winning work rather than doing the work. They'd show customers the CVs of really senior people during the bidding process but, when it came to doing the work, they'd switch these people out with graduates/people in India. Our customers would have been just as good hiring a bunch of people off the street. So many projects went wrong because everyone on the project was so inexperienced.
I know understand why all of those big government IT projects are a disaster. The government is hiring companies (repeatedly!) who don't care about the quality of their work.
EDIT: The company's "HQ" was based in the Cayman Islands until very recently.

I work for a company that flogs software to banks so I guess is evil by association.
On the other hand when our software replaces older systems they can often sack a load of staff... Perhaps that helps hedge our evilness by association as we help to create a situation where less bankers are required in the world.

According to generic bloke down the pub; yes.

Meh. The money's good though. Roll with dem punches!
I work for an asset management company, we're considered evil by the unwashed masses despite the fact we engage in no investment banking practices. We also voluntarily covered all the losses our hedge funds made in 2008. Not that it makes a difference; I had an ex-girlfriend who asked me how I could get up every morning and continue being a shyster. :/

Not any more,and the company concerned is huge,spread worldwide.Their evil stems from what they manufactured in World War 2,and i am NOT going to name them,though i'm sure it could soon be worked out by OCUK detective's.
Not going to post in this thread again either.

May be she wasn't talking about the job?
I have my own consulting company and we are too unknown outside our niche to register on your evilometers. Our clients range from skull island owning megalomaniac entrepreneurs, through baby eating funds and banks and on to donkey rescuing trusts full of do-gooders. It's the latter that get on wick.
