I don't think there's anything ethical about stringing your employees along for 3 months without pay, regardless of how successful you may have been in the past

- tomhoward 10y agoThat's a fair enough position to take. But that doesn't necessarily make it morally equivalent to robbery. Morality is a spectrum, and you can only make a judgement call on it when all the details are known, which right now they aren't.
- darklajid 10y agoPreviously it was theft. I'd agree that it is theft unless the employees were informed about the situation a la "We cannot pay wages for a while, would you volunteer to still come in?". Robbery? Now that's a different thing. But theft? Close enough.
