They likely did not choose to put benzene in there but they have to think "nobody ever got in trouble for buying IBM" or in this case "nobody ever got in trouble for choosing the cheapest sweatshop (with some credentials to appear almost ethical) in China". There is no evil Doctor laughing in a castle planning to add benzene to things however it is pretty evil to dismiss QA and client safety in a way as reckless as they have. At the end of the day they can always say " I was just following orders" or " I was only trying to maximize profit"
