Even if he's not evil, in the movie he sends his grandkids out in Jurassic park before it had been properly tested as safe. Arrogant and also neglegent.

In the book, I read him as arrogant, greedy, and not a bit a grandfather. In fact, he was rather put out that the kids were there (they were also younger--the girl was 6 and the boy was 9). He spent part of a dialogue complaining that the kids were there, and was more concerned about the animals than saving his kids. He also came to a very different end at the end of the book.

Another evil corporation (books, not movies--yet): The Goliath Corporation from Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series.

Lunar Industries, the corporation in Moon, that clones Sam Rockwell's character repeatedly, just for cost cutting measures.
