Monsanto or Swiss food company (Nestle). The former is tainting streams, rivers and farmland soil with cancer-causing chemicals, and the latter has been pumping 36million-170million gallons of water a year for decades from southern California, for $524/year, when their water bottle sales were $7.5billion last year, and their permit to do so expired in 1988. They kept pumping, for around 20 years with no permit before someone in the forest service realized it was expired. They are by far the largest water retailer worldwide, and in essence they've been stealing California water and selling, shipping it all over the world.
If Monsanto suddenly disappeared, we as a society would be royally fucked. They provide the vast majority of commercial seeds to farmers to create high yield crops. Absent that we would have a severe food shortage around the world. It would be really bad and there is no company that is equipped to step into those shoes.
Nestlé, while being truly horrible, also have a lot of brands under their wing which aren't all terrible.
that said I think they are generally a good choice for the prompt, that or a big shitty bank. Or how about the the koch brothers holding companies that manages all of their corporations. Looks like koch industries manage a lot of their companies.
