Probably hundreds of movies show all the ways making humanoid robots can go wrong. Why the hell does anyone think it's still a good idea to make robots that are significantly stronger than humans?
If you consider the mentality of fascist dictators, the concept of an ever obedient non thinking workforce/army is very appealing. That's why.
Could it end badly even for them? Sure, but heck, if they don't make the human race ending robots, someone else will.
I give it 6 months until they forget their password or something and their entire empire collapses until they can get someone out from IT to fix it, but first they have to log a ticket or else no work is being done.
