Yeah, I agree but I know some companies will have stupid thoughts like "a company employee is less likely to do that" or "at least we have an employment contract to back us up legally".
Until they are attacked...
Not to mention a lot of the time the "attack" is from the company themselves. Just look at the Meta malware as an example

What is this?
The VPN that performed a man in the middle attack to get data from other apps
Ugh this reminds me of a guy I worked with, he used to be a trucker but became a software tester (he was also very religious).
Anyway he used to hate on open source software and call it open sores. According to him it was all amateur crap. Ugh I still hate that guy and it has been 15 years....
