They're popular because they have massive market presence and they make a wide variety of bikes, many of which are nothing short of brilliant. However, many object to the company itself due to external and internal issues. Whether that sort of thing matters to the end consumer is really down to the individual. I'll never purchase a Specialized because I care about which companies receive my money and with so many better companies available to patronize, there's no incentive for me to choose Specialized.
