"Becoming"?
"Don't be evil". Not-evil people don't need to say such things.
Also, any large organization is a shit show, regardless of what it's organized for. It's the nature of humanity.
A (former) boss used to say "if you have 3 employees you have nine problems".
They famously threw out "Don't be evil" when they formed Alphabet, a move that was, I have to admit, surprisingly honest of them.
It was a Warrant Canary
That was a reference to Microsoft. They were on trial / convicted for abusing their monopoly in awful ways to screw over any potential competitors, and making the experience terrible for Microsoft users. As bad as Google might be today, they're nowhere near as bad as Microsoft was. And, in the early years, they were definitely the anti-Microsoft in the tech world.
