You may have no memory of it, but there was a time when many American corporations had different, broader values. The structure of the present is not necessary or inevitable.

Did they really have broader values or did they just not have the technical sophistication to optimize their operation to this level? Where "values" just a substitute for more limited information?

I think computers have made the structure of the present inevitable.
