The smart embezzler would only take a small portion of the business to make sure that it survives a while. Kind of like a tick feeding off a deer. Also, he would take so little that nobody would notice and he would not end up in jail.

With that said, I know a couple of convicted criminals that are making fine money in the automotive repair business. Convicted criminals can make money and get jobs, it is just hard for them to get jobs where they will have responsibility (e.g., supervisors, handling money). I am sure there are a ton of convicted criminals in the construction industry doing the building.

I am not saying that criminals should not be employed after they serve their time, I am saying that not all of them want to be employed while in prison or out of prison.
