This is really no different than any other field. You'll find dishonest lawyers, doctors, politicians, CEOs, and even... gasp... gamblers.
Lawyers have a particular bad reputation externally, yet within the field you'll find people with high integrity who genuinely want to make a positive difference. Same goes for corporate CEOs.
