    Google ranks at number one on the 2012 FORTUNE Magazine’s ‘Top 100 Companies to Work For’. “Last year, the revenue increased 33%, Google and gave employees an 11% pay hike.” (Fortune Magazine, 2012). Google employees are devotedly nicknamed Googlers. “At Google, change and inspiration keep our projects improving and changing. Our organization comes from our Googlers; smart and astonishing people who promote an atmosphere of cooperation and enjoyment.” (About Google, 2012) Google provides their employees “a great environment to provide both as an individual and as a part of the team. Even with the large size and growth of the company, people who work here still feel like they matter and that there are people who actually care for you. (About Google, 2012) Steiner’s social combination theory is apparent in the motivational style of Google’s employees due to the management that focuses on the group, rather than productivity and individual.

    Until a few years ago, most companies had not cared so much about ethics and social responsibility. They only focused on cost and margin to increase their profits.

They have contributed society with their wealth. Why are they doing that? Are they doing that for their self-contentment? This paper will take PepsiCo as an example to show how the company overcame its struggles and the association between profits and ethics and social responsibility in a business.…
