Both companies have significant image problems.

Google are socially tone-deaf and creepy.

Amazon are Borging retail, and have a major problem with Bezos being widely viewed as an asshole, with strong justification.

Mind: much the rest of the tech world does little better. Microsoft, Oracle, Apple, Facebook, IBM, and more.

I'm inclined to think that its the sector itself which selects for this, though in the selection process, the personnel (and especially management) are very mich part of the problem.
