First of all, I don't see why becoming a Fortune 500 company is a decent aim.

Second, you seem to maintain that capitalism is not at all a "collectivist" thing. That view is impossible to defend, because, when we discuss economies we are in fact discussing collectivist entities. Under capitalism, these entities are encouraged to be hierarchical in nature.

Fortune 500 companies are not democratic in nature. It is not one person one vote, nor are considerations aside from short-term profit often encouraged. That's why people are relucant to join such companies. That and their anal retentive, class-distinction-inducing, mind-numbing nature.
