Microsoft Beats Out Apple, Google, Facebook for “Most Ethical” Company List

The days of morally questionable business strategies are behind Microsoft. So says a new list of the “110 Most Ethical Companies.” Google, Apple, and Facebook all failed to make the cut, but the once monopolistically-minded Microsoft made it in from a pool that included more than 3,000 companies.

Microsoft, of course, has worked hard to shape up its image after spending a couple of decades battling all manner of antitrust lawsuits. The company has pumped money into charities and kept a tighter check on its own internal workings, in attempt to improve its standings as a “corporate citizen.”
While Google, Apple, and Facebook all got snubbed, however, a number of other tech companies made the list, including Adobe, Cisco, eBay, Salesforce, Symantec, Texas Instruments, and Zappos made the list.
