Every Fortune 100 company I've worked for has annual training that stresses the companies no-bribes no matter the reason policy.
Then we get pulled over in Mexico with a VP with us and it's a totally different reality on the ground.

Most companies want you to pay the cop to not take you to jail on fake charges. The don't want you to pay the M. Resources (or at least not officially). International Conglomerates keep 'Sunshine Funds' - i.e. money off the regular books in overseas accounts for this activity. It's part of doing business in 1/2 the countries around the world, literally impossible to do business without it.
