They're definitely among the worst of the worst. It's always surprised me how comparatively sterile their wiki page is. Feels like they've got someone cleaning it up.
I wouldn't be surprised - they have plenty of money to pay someone to keep that page clean.
I also found out after this post that they're in the active process of acquiring Simon and Schuster. Cory Doctorow (aka @pluralistic) has a great writeup on them here.
