In large organizations motivated reasoning trumps ethics. Behavior starts working along incentive gradients like an ant heap. Spend enough time in an environment like that and you learn to frame every selfish decision as good for the customer.

I think maintaining ethics in large organizations is one of the main challenges of our time, now that mega corps dominate our time and attention.

This reminds me of "in order to save the environment, we are going to delete all of your recordings older than 2 years, in 2 weeks. You can't download them."

"Corporation are people, folks" said Mitt Romney (as a result of the Citizen United case). The whole thing is so cringe on so many levels.

What Romney did not say is that these particular "people" tend strongly towards sociopathic behavior.
