When I was employed, I considered that I was working for the Founder/CEO/Director so one of the most important things for me was to be inspired and in-sync with him. He was the one I would make richer, so I had to be happy and proud to make this person richer. This has never been my intention, but it turned out that that one of these persons became my investor. The takeaway is that focusing on the mission and culture will always pay the highest dividends (even though these dividends may not be money initially) That being said, I have no problem with unethical, but do have a problem with dishonest and deceitful. Sextoys are unethical, cold calls are unethical etc... I agree with those saying that a company needs to get the ball rolling. Organic growth doesn't start a business, it makes it sustainable. Think about the healthy food business. Being healthy is simple : eat raw fruits, eat raw vegetables, repeat. Yet even an "ethical" company will need to add many refined ingredients to push the expiry date farer, and differentiate on colour, taste, etc... They need to literally add poison to health. Is that unethical ? If you say yes, then all healthy food companies should be fresh fruit market sellers in order to remain ethical. There's no such thing as ethics in business. But there is integrity and mission. Integrity is standing for who you are. Sometimes standing for who you are requires kicking people in the noise in bars, other times it requires remaining silent in front of the greatest outrage. Individual actions alone cannot define an identity, therefore no single action or act should be flagged as always bad or always good. Good has been defended with violence (bastille day), bad has been defended with silence (slavery). >What should I do Do not focus on what they do but on why they do it. It wouldn't be wise since a company never is where it would like to be. Quite frankly, ask a 5min meeting with your CEO/or a very senior manager, this is the kind of chat they usually love to have. And perhaps nobody ever told him. In addition to feeling relieved you will also score, they'll give you credit for that. Simply, don't sound like you think you are better than them, and don't lecture them. Just voice your concern, and be honest, curious, and humble.
