Software ones? Absolutely.

Companies selling physical goods lead to a decent amount of jobs in every country they operate in by definition. Not so for software.

It is US big tech who has for a decade or 2 reaped enormous benefits from extracting large sums of money from non-US economies while contributing near-zero back to those economies (often not just near-zero but straight up deeply negative amounts due to externalities).
