Some, if not most corporations in fiction are Obviously Evil. Others might seem benevolent but are actually engaged in unethical business practices. However, some corporations go the extra mile. Not content with mere corruption, they engage in a wide-reaching, secret Evil Plan to achieve their goals — usually, but not always simple greed. This is the Corporate Conspiracy.
What exactly this plot entails varies. The conspiracy may be selling armaments to incite War for Fun and Profit, they may be manipulating property value to gentrify the neighborhood and Kill the Poor, they may be deliberately spreading diseases while selling the cure/solution to the masses, or be Playing with Syringes to make Super Soldiers and Take Over the World, they might be a pharmaceutical company doing some combination of both... what counts is that they're evil (again, with exceptions) and they're secret.
A subtrope of The Conspiracy and Capitalism Is Bad. May be connected to a Government Conspiracy if the writer wants to invoke the "Military-Industrial Complex". For the blue-collar version, see Milkman Conspiracy. See also Corrupt Corporate Executive, Evil, Inc.. Overlaps with Incompetence, Inc. if the conspiracy backfires in an Epic Fail or Hoist by Their Own Petard.

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey: Project Alchera, which combines this and Government Conspiracy as corporations act as the world government in the setting. The Japanese toy company WATIcorp is involved in developing and spreading Mind Control Devices as lucid dream toys, but accidentally found the Magic World, which used the same wavelengths as the project.

AbraxasVerse: Apex Cybernetics, similarly to in canon. They're collaborating with Monarch to build a Titan mech ostensibly to give Godzilla and the other Protector Titans an extra ally on humanity's behalf in defence of the Earth. What Apex aren't telling Monarch or anyone else is that they're secretly building their own bigger, improved mech (Mechagodzilla) the entire time, and they're implicitly planning to take control of both mechs so they can use them against both the good and bad Titans.

Spoofed in the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode "Sweet Dee Has A Heart Attack". Mac and Charlie get a job at a MegaCorp so they can get health insurance. After several days of working in the mailroom, a stressed-out Charlie believes he's stumbled onto a company conspiracy involving fake employees, a Man In Black-esque figure named Barney, and someone named Pepe Silvia. Turns out Charlie has completely lost his mind (and Barney is a hallucination).

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures: Null earned his title as "The Man Who Sold The World" when his company made a deal with a Horde of Alien Locusts to assist in the smooth and easy conquest of Earth in exchange for the technology to move their business off world. That their Queen Maligna planned to feast on the human race didn't seem to bother him at all. He later did this again with the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Someone should really take his business license away.

Played with in Lodge 49, where Conspiracy Theorist Champ keeps insisting that Long Beach's financial woes are all the fault of a mysterious organization called Parabola, which is ingrained within local company Orbis. Champ turns out to be partially right; there was in fact a Parabola group within Orbis back in the sixties, and they did play a role in Long Beach's financial woes, but Parabola is long dead, and their role in Long Beach's problems was accidental — they were conducting an experiment in theoretical currency called the Orbit and the Orbits ended up in the hands of employees, who began converting much of their savings into Orbits. When the Orbit turned out to be unsustainable, lots of families in Long Beach lost all their savings, leaving Long Beach as a Dying Town.

The Illuminae Files:
The series kicks off with Beitech's hostile takeover of WUC's illegal hermium mine on Kerenza IV, including wholesale slaughter of the Kerenza population. It gets worse — during the attack they also released an experimental pathogen that causes even more mass death after the evacuation.
In Gemina, they're at it again, taking over the Heimdall jump station to prevent the Kerenza survivors from making it back to civilisation to testify against Beitech. Murdering the station commander is only the beginning.

Saisho Saikou from Yandere Simulator, founder of the powerful business conglomerate Saikou Corp, created it with the scope of gaining enough power to start a war against the countries that fought with Japan during War World II, during which several of his friends were killed. However, as Japan's former enemies began to embrace the Japanese culture thanks to his company's influence around the world, combined with the fact that most of his enemies who killed his friends were either dead or very old, he stopped seeing any reason in starting a war.

24:
BXJ Technologies is home to a highly secretive corporate cabal controlling Charles Logan who, on Day 5, sponsored the Sentox nerve gas conspiracy with the intent to acquire more oil for America from Central Asia and, during Day 6, was involved in a cover-up to hide the damage done by a sub-contractor, the terrorist collaborator Darren McCarthy.
Starkwood from Day 7 is a private military company owned by Jonas Hodges, who gave weapons to African Terrorists in exchange for a biological weapon. The bioweapon to be used to force the United States to give responsibility of the national security of the country to Starkwood and other private military companies, thus (in Hodges' eyes) "saving" America.
Alan Wilson is, like Hodges, a private military executive who, on Day 7, used bioweapons in terrorist plots against America — unlike Hodges, however, Wilson is a sociopath involved in the aforementioned Sentox conspiracy who manipulates world politics for profit.

Sentinels of the Multiverse: Pike Industries can fit this bill, especially considering Graham Pike is an Expy for The Kingpin and Lex Luthor. If there's any dirty deal going on in Rook City, chances are fantastic they're involved. Especially notable is the backstory of the hero Benchmark, who was created by them to be The Mole in the superhero community, winning public trust, and eventually turn Sixth Ranger Traitor by killing them all, thus allowing Pike to control both sides of the struggle between good and evil. Fortunately the coming of Oblivaeon forced them to debut Benchmark before they could install all the needed software, but card art does indicate the plan can still move forward.
A less seen example is Revo Corp, which was created by Baron Blade both for scientific research and financial support for his evil schemes. It has since struck out on its own, but the Baron made its new CEO An Offer You Can't Refuse and thus still receives a hefty amount of support from the company.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit: Judge Doom, being the sole stockholder of Cloverleaf Industries, murders Marvin Acme, the owner of Toon Town (framing Roger for it in the process) and then tries his hardest to make certain that Acme's will is never discovered so that Cloverleaf can win the bidding war to buy Toon Town, so that he can demolish it and build a freeway. (And as if that weren't enough, his plan involves murdering every toon living there.)

Resident Evil: Umbrella Corp is publicly your friendly neighborhood pharmaceuticals and cosmetics firm, but it's all to cover up their real business — genetically engineering Synthetic Plagues and Bioweapon Beasts. In fact, they're less a corporation indulging in a little illegal behavior on the side, and more a criminal organization with a pharmaceutical corporation as its front. As it turns out, the real conspiracy isn't creating bioweapons, but creating Immortality, the true goal of CEO Ozwell E. Spencer.

Ready Player One: On the surface, IOI is just like any other competitor for Halliday's Egg, and ownership of the OASIS, albeit with manpower and resources that give them a huge edge in the game. This was apparently not enough for them, though, as they also engaged in stealing user data, attacking Wade Watt's real world home in an attempt to kill him, actually killing another teenaged player by having mercenaries throw him off the balcony of his apartment, buying up people's debts in order to put them in indentured servitude, and grand scale cheating by closing down any area of the OASIS that might contain a clue to Halliday's game. This all ultimately comes to light when the game ends with Wade in control, and it's hinted that the company's lawyers will be scrambling to prevent IOI from losing all access to the OASIS and thus the internet.

A running staple of the villains in the James Bond films. Most of them are very rich but sociopathic Corrupt Corporate Executives willing to cut corners and seek profits at the expense of others.
SPECTRE's head and 007's Arch-Enemy Ernst Stavro Blofeld runs a large criminal empire whose resources rival those of the superpowers, and is behind many of the evil conspiracies in the Sean Connery, George Lazenby and Daniel Craig eras. Some of the front organizations SPECTRE has operated from include International Brotherhood for the Assistance of Stateless Persons, Osato Chemicals, Greene Planet, Joint Intelligence Service, among others. SPECTRE even lends its mercenary services to both sides of the Cold War as part of its long-term strategy to weaken NATO and the Warsaw Pact.
Dr. No: The titular villain sabotages American nuclear tests on behalf of an unnamed country who has paid SPECTRE. He even offered his services to both NATO and the Warsaw Pact, but was rebuffed by both sides and decided to join SPECTRE in revenge.
Thunderball: During the SPECTRE board meeting, one member reports on the French paying 3 million francs for killing a defector to Russia, while another reports on SPECTRE smuggling in Red Chinese drugs into the United States.
You Only Live Twice: SPECTRE has been paid by an unnamed country to instigate World War III. Mr. Osato, president of Osato Chemicals, is secretly allied with SPECTRE and allows them to use his company as a front for their Evil Plan.
Diamonds Are Forever: Blofeld kidnaps and impersonates the reclusive billionaire Willard Whyte, using his business empire and space research facility to build and launch a Kill Sat to destroy nuclear weapons in China, the Soviet Union and the United States, then propose "an international auction, with nuclear supremacy going to the highest bidder."
Casino Royale (2006): Le Chiffre is a terrorist banker affiliated with Quantum and a mysterious man named Mr. White. Quantum has financed criminal groups such as Al-Qaeda and the Lord's Resistance Army, and has profited from the activities it sponsors, such as when they shorted airline stocks after the 9/11 attacks. Other known Quantum members included a high-ranking advisor to the British Prime Minister, an ex-KGB spy turned mining executive, a former Mossad agent turned telecom tycoon, a Bolivian army general, and a CIA section chief for South America.
Quantum of Solace: Dominic Greene, the president of Greene Planet, has known links to Quantum and is plotting to seize control of Bolivia's water supply and create an artificial drought by having its government overthrown.
The titular criminal organization is up to its shenanigans again in Spectre, as they're the ones who have bankrolled a joint intelligence-sharing program between the world's leading spy agencies. With the backdoor access they'll have, it would enable them to permanently stay ahead of anyone who is trying to investigate them. Quantum is also revealed to be a sub-unit of SPECTRE, as they were the ones who financed Raoul Silva's cyber-criminal activities in Skyfall. By this time, SPECTRE has morphed into an Illuminati-esque organization whose tentacles has penetrated the upper echelons of companies, governments, and even not-for-profits.
The titular Goldfinger, a British jeweler and head of Auric Enterprises who allies with some Dirty Commies to create "economic chaos in the West" by irradiating Fort Knox's gold, thus allowing him to corner the gold market and have the value of his holdings go up even more.
The Spy Who Loved Me: Karl Stromberg, head of the Stromberg Shipping Line, hijacks nuclear submarines in a bid to start World War III and restart civilization in an underwater city.
Moonraker: Hugo Drax, owner of the aerospace company Drax Industries, is secretly plotting to use Deadly Gas to Kill All Humans so that he can restart civilization with those human beings he regards as "superior".
A View to a Kill: Microchip tycoon Max Zorin, owner of Zorin Industries and secretly the only survivor of a Nazi Super Breeding Program, wants to destroy Silicon Valley with a massive man-made earthquake, causing the death of millions just so he can corner the microchip market.
Tomorrow Never Dies: Corrupt media mogul Elliot Carver, owner of the Carver Media Group Network, plans to foment war between the US and China to boost his ratings. And because China wouldn't give him broadcasting rights, of course.
The World Is Not Enough: Elektra King is willing to nuke Istanbul so that the British pipeline would get more use, thus becoming the sole transporter of Caspian oil to the West.
Die Another Day: Gustav Graves, a billionaire diamond magnate who built his fortune illegally laundering blood diamonds in order to fund a huge space project: a solar satellite that he can use to cut a path through the Korean DMZ, allowing North Korea to launch an invasion of South Korea..

The Expanse:
A lot of people die in Leviathan Wakes thanks to Protogen's plan to test out the Protomolecule by unleashing it on the entire population of Eros. Just their distraction plan of starting a war between Earth, Mars and the Belt kills thousands, and then there's the population of Eros.
It continues in Caliban's War with Mao-Kwikowski (of which Protogen was a subsidiary). In this case they try to weaponize the Protomolecule by creating Super Soldiers, reigniting hostilities between Earth and Mars.

Chinatown: Noah Cross, already the richest man in Los Angeles, renders vast farmlands arid by illegally dumping their irrigation water into the ocean, thus causing their prices to plummet to next to nothing. After forcing the farmers to sell their land to his cabal of corrupt business partners, Cross intends to develop his newly acquired land by irrigating it with the water supply diverted from the city itself, through a new aqueduct and reservoir built from $8 million of taxpayer money. His only gain from this elaborate swindle is "The future!"

The Stargate-verse/Star Trek crossover “Destiny and Voyager: Crossroads� features Voyager discovering a wormhole that leads into the galaxy where Destiny is currently travelling through, beginning a complex plan that allows both crews to get back to their respective Earths. When Destiny takes both crews back to the Star Trek Earth, Doctor Nicholas Rush investigates the location of the Ancient outpost found in Antarctica in his universe of origin and finds an equivalent outpost in the Trek universe, but this version has been stripped of most of its technology. Since the general population of this Earth has no knowledge of the Ancients, Rush concludes that at some point in the past of this Earth the outpost was discovered by an unknown corporation that sold the technology and disguised it as a human creation, others specifically citing humanity’s creation of the transporter as an example of Ancient technology being passed as human.

Marvel Universe:
The Mad Scientist organization AIM (Advanced Idea Mechanics) started off as a Research, Inc., hiding its true origins as a division of Hydra.
Roxxon Oil is the source of a lot of these, including a scheme by its Brainwashed CEO to conquer the world for the Serpent Crown, a plot to steal Wakanda's vibranium, and a plan to banish all of Earth's superhumans to another dimension.
Ghost Rider: Most people know that Contracts Unlimited is a somewhat shady mercenary company. What very few realize is that it is actually an Apocalypse Cult run by the madman Deathwatch who wants to kill everything in the world while he watches, then die himself.
Iron Man: Justin Hammer first came to ol' Shell Head's attention as the mastermind of one of these when Tony found that Hammer Industries was secretly financing and outfitting supervillains.
Ms. Marvel (2016): In Volume 5, Kamala and the other residents of Jersey City discover that the Hope Yards Development and Relocation Association plans to massively renovate the city. It's actually a front for Hydra, who want to Take Over the City.
Spider-Man: The Life Foundation was basically a corporate Crazy Survivalist group, prepared for the worst-case scenario of the Cold War, and willing to do anything to survive said cataclysm.
Marvel Knights would propose that post WWII corporations would conspire to protect their interests from the rising threat of superheroes by backing the creation of supervillains. Years later Spider-Man Beyond would elaborate on this by revealing that certain corporations cover up white collar crime by engineering flashy public battles that makes evidence and people disappear with little questions asked. There is a cabal of shadowy figures that commission these events.

Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Iron Man 3: Aldrich Killian and his AIM company are the center of a conspiracy involving an actor impersonating a terrorist, the Vice President of the United States and army veterans augmented with a Super Serum, all so that he can manipulate both sides of The War on Terror.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Ian Quinn, owner of Quinn Worldwide, is a visionary philanthropist who spearheads a movement that champions deregulation of government interference with scientific research so that he can get his hands on advanced tech and is allied with the Centipede Group.
The Hand, which features prominently in the Daredevil (2015), Iron Fist (2017) and The Defenders (2017) series, are an Ancient Conspiracy that has wormed its way into dozens of companies like Rand Enterprises and Roxxon Corporation, just to name a few, allowing them access to large amounts of cash and the ability to move their resources and operatives wherever they need to go.

X-Men Film Series:
Essex Corp, a mysterious organization founded by Nathaniel Essex that appears in X-Men: Apocalypse and Deadpool 2. They practice research and experiments on Mutants, and run a genuine torture facility under the cover of an orphanage. They also seem to be connected with Transigen, as the blood sample they took from Wolverine ended up in the hands of the latter.
The aforementioned Transigen, which appears in Logan. Although they put up a benign public front, they are actually the successor to the Weapon X project, and are directly involved in illegal human experimentation on mutant children. They're also responsible for preventing further mutant births via genetically modified crops, which suppress the X-gene. Their master plan, formulated by Dr. Zander Rice, is to control mutantkind by wiping out the old mutants and replacing it with selectively bred mutants of their own.

Fallout: In the last few decades preceding the Great War in 2077, several of these arose, usually in connection with the Enclave.
Vault-Tec was supposedly building the Vaults to save American citizens from the inevitable nuclear war. In reality, the Vault program was a pretense to gather test subjects into a confined space for various scientific and sociological experiments, with the data to be used by the Enclave to rebuild civilization (with the exception of a dozen or so Control Vaults that did work as advertised). Unfortunately, Vault-Tec was a Stupid Evil Incompetence, Inc. whose corporate culture actively encouraged their Mad Scientists to conduct needlessly cruel "experiments" for their own amusement. Post-War, the surviving remnant of Vault-Tec actually considered itself the true legitimate rulers of the U.S, even over both the Enclave or any other government holdouts, though the corporation appears to be completely defunct by the time the actual games begin.
Poseidon Energy, while not as prominent as Vault-Tec, also applies. It was an energy monopoly with close ties to the Enclave (including the construction of their Oil Rig HQ) who engaged in all manner of price gouging, pollution and exploitation during the energy crisis that would eventually lead to World War III, using the Post-Peak Oil crisis to it's own advantage. They also worked to crush Workers Rights and Unions, financing companies like Hallucigen Inc to produce chemical weapons meant to brainwash and control civilians. Like Vault-Tec, the Great War appears to have put a permanent end to their machinations.

Saints Row 2: Ultor Corporation turns out to be secretly fueling the Mob War in Stilwater, in order to a) let the gangs wipe each other out, and b) drive down the property values in the hardest-hit neighborhood of Shivington to buy it up wholesale and gentrify it for massive profit, like they did with Saint's Row in-between games.

L.A. Noire: Officially, the Suburban Redevelopment Fund was a private organization, a cabal of several prominent local officials and citizens, building houses for GIs. Unbeknownst to the public, the directors intentionally bought up land along the proposed route of the new freeway, burned down the houses of those who refused to sell, then built cheap houses on them to drive up the value when the government offers to buy them out under eminent domain. Oh, and all of this was being partially funded by stolen army-surplus morphine.

RoboCop: Omni Consumer Products is not the most ethical of corporations. The original film has a vice-president willing to make a deal with a crime boss to start a crime spree so that OCP can step in and offer to privatize the police force — and all of this to demolish Detroit and rebuild it as Delta City. By the time of the third movie, they're even hiring a street gang to drive out the locals.

This was ComStar's role in the early years of Battletech. Supposedly just the company that ran the Subspace Ansible, they were also a religious order who believed that there would be a coming catatrophy that would reduce the Inner Sphere to ruin, and that they would be the ones to pick up the pieces. Because of that, they played the different Successor States against each other (easy to do when you've got a monopoly on interplanetary communications). They were eventually found out after the Clan invasion (notably because Comstar's leader at the time tried to double-cross the Inner Sphere and the Clans at the same time) and after some internal cleaning promised they wouldn't do things like that anymore. Nobody really believes them. On a smaller scale, Mega Corps like Defiance Industries, Starcorp, and Irain Battlemechs regularly perform acts of espionage and sabotage against each other, trying to learn or steal new research in order to get a leg up on the competition.

Their scheme involves conning robots out of their money by convincing them to replace their old bodies in favor of shiny newer ones, and shutting down production of spare parts for older models to make the new parts their only choice... and they're not afraid to melt down anyone who gets in their way.

Master Detective Archives: Rain Code: Amaterasu Corporation’s CEO, Makoto Kagutsuchi, turns out to be involved in a mass kidnapping case involving the catastrophic results of Amaterasu’s prior homunculus research as the Big Bad. The kidnapping involves death row inmates who Makoto uses for Kanai Ward’s food supply, converting them into meat buns and feeding them to Kanai Ward’s residents. In the process of this, he tries to hide the truth of Kanai Ward's homunculus populace from the world, shuts down Dr. Huesca's homunculus research project, and blackmails the Unified Government with their own homunculus research to accomplish the task of isolating the city, and he also brought the Master Detectives to Kanai Ward to use them as mere pawns against Yomi Hellsmile, Director of the Peacekeepers, as part of his dastardly but well-intentioned plot to keep the city and its truth hidden from the world forever.

The titular criminal organization is up to its shenanigans again in Spectre, as they're the ones who have bankrolled a joint intelligence-sharing program between the world's leading spy agencies. With the backdoor access they'll have, it would enable them to permanently stay ahead of anyone who is trying to investigate them. Quantum is also revealed to be a sub-unit of SPECTRE, as they were the ones who financed Raoul Silva's cyber-criminal activities in Skyfall. By this time, SPECTRE has morphed into an Illuminati-esque organization whose tentacles has penetrated the upper echelons of companies, governments, and even not-for-profits.

Batman Returns: Max Shreck is a powerful and respected businessman, owns multiple enterprises including department stores and construction companies, and wants to use his electric company to build a power plant in Gotham. The thing is, the power plant is actually meant to steal energy from the citizens of Gotham, leading to the rest of the movie's conflict as Shreck attempts to murder Selina Kyle for knowing too much (turning her into Catwoman) and tries to make The Penguin mayor so that Penguin can use his position to approve Shreck's plan.

Central to Hi-Fi RUSH are Vandelay Technologies, Project Armstrong, and SPECTRA. Project Armstrong is ostensibly a philanthropic program by Vandelay, giving robotic limbs to those who need them (such as protagonist Chai). However, SPECTRA is a program, disguised as a firmware update, that allows Vandelay to control the minds of anyone with an Armstrong limb. Everyone assumes Kale Vandelay is planning on using it to Take Over the World. Deconstruction ensues when Kale just wants to use it to make people buy more Vandelay products. Everyone else is disgusted by his motive being so corporate.

The Secret World:
The Orochi Group, a powerful multinational corporate group dating back to 1949 that controls a satellite company in every industry on every continent, is involved in vast political conspiracies and corporate takeovers, and is making forays into magical research for its own ends. Unfortunately, they're not very good at controlling their experiments.
The Illuminati is a much older institution, created centuries ago with the aim of pursuing power in all its forms. They're much more Benevolent then Orochi (after all, you can't rule the world if there's no world remaining), who they regard as a bunch of upstarts who give their Mad Scientists far too much freedom. Already modeled after a corporation, they also have influence in several actual business groups, so as to secure their goal of magical, scientific, and financial power.

"The Inside Job": Dr. Anne Hannity, vice-president of the Wakefield Agricultural Corporation's R&D division, cost her company 60 million dollars losses studying a rare blight called UG99 with the potential to destroy all known strains of wheat — except for a GMO variant she created. She plans to release the blight, causing a global famine while Wakefield profits from its monopoly on UG99-resistant wheat.
"The Double Blind Job": Darren Hoffman is CEO of Pallagen Laboratories, which has just recently bought out the drug company J.R.P. Pharmaceuticals. J.R.P. had previously tested a drug called HT1 that caused lethal liver damage in whoever took it — Hoffman erased all records of HT1 and tried to launch it under the name Vioplex, knowing that in the time it takes for thousands of patients to die, the company will make billions of dollars selling the drug, minus a 15% fine from the FDA.

They're also responsible for preventing further mutant births via genetically modified crops, which suppress the X-gene.

Shadowrun: It's probably easier to say which companies aren't involved in some vast conspiracy (i.e. none). The worst are Aztechnology (who use Blood Magic, and tend to be Card-Carrying Villain sorts to deniable assets like 'runners) and Saeder-Krupp (literally owned by a scheming dragon, who's rumored to eat employees and shadowrunners who fail him). Even unethical shadowrunners avoid them, simply because of their tendency to invoke You Have Outlived Your Usefulness when it comes to being paid. It's practically a Running Gag that they have to pretend to be another corporation just to hire deniable assets.

"Terror of the Autons": The Master uses his hypnotic abilities to take over a plastics firm named Farrel Autoplastics, using it to make products that can be controlled by the Nestene in his master plan to summon them back to Earth.
"The Green Death": Global Chemicals not only dumps toxic waste into a Welsh mine (inadvertently creating giant maggots), but they're also dabbling in electronics, building a Master Computer named BOSS that promptly goes mad (and gay, apparently) and takes control of the corporation in a plan to Take Over the World.
"Rise of the Cybermen": Cybus Industries from the parallel Earth is actually brainwashing Londoners in order to convert them into Cybermen, as per the wishes of CEO John Lumic.
"Partners In Crime": Miss Foster, head of Adipose Industries, is actually an alien nanny who intends to use her corporation to turn humans into Adipose for her clients — at the expense of over a million lives.
"Spyfall": The search engine/data-handling company VOR, headed by Daniel Barton, that's collecting everyone's data for the purpose of turning most of humanity into Wetware CPUs.

The Dark Tower: Several corporations are involved in unsavory practices, ranging from attempting to use "breakers" to destroy the beams holding up the dark tower to trying to combine technology with magic. Companies mentioned include Trans Corporation, North Central Positronics, and the Sombra Corporation. Tet Corporation is the good counterpart to these corporations, tasked with thwarting the efforts of those corporations, protecting the rose, and protecting Stephen King.

Lumon, the company where the protagonists of Severance (2022) work, is a creepy cult-like corporation with offices in its own Company Town, and whatever it's up to is so bad / controversial / ominous that employees aren't allowed to remember what they do during work hours. The plot of the show involves the protagonists slowly untangling Lumon's web of lies.

Alterien: There are at least three of these. There's NGT (New Genesis Technologies), owned by protagonist Oberon Navarro; Spencer Industries, owned by his rival Theseus Spencer; and finally, Sol 3 United, created by Oberon and his girlfriend Helena Velazquez. All three center around the Alterians, a Human Subspecies that Oberon is a member of — Oberon wants to ensure his species' survival by having them replace homo sapiens as the dominant species on Earth.

Succession takes the unusual step of having the people perpetuating the conspiracy (the board of Waystar Royco) as the main characters. They've sent their cruise ships out under a non-American flag to save money and avoid legal trouble, which has fostered a culture of institutionalized rape and sexual harassment going on, and their attempts to thwart investigations into it are a huge part of the conflict.
