An instant counterexample I thought of is a non-profit.

Individuals working there are always excited about personal empire building of course, but if the stated community need is being met, well, that's good enough, in fact if that need is dropping that can sometimes be awesome.

Stereotypical orphanage or red cross or homeless shelter.

Churches are another business that often is fairly steady state plus or minus population changes and inflation.

Of course non profits can experience explosive growth, my credit union is a non-profit coop and since the nationwide banks have gone into decline with exploding fees and imploding services, the CU has recently had exploding growth rates. Which admittedly has a lot more to do with external societal factors than internal goals.
