Once upon a time, I was in a situation to stand against a project which I judged morally unacceptable. Colleagues actually reacted more harshly than management. "What are you doing!? This is work!", I was told, as if moral considerations had no room in the work place. Reaction from management was smoother: "We're glad everyone can express their opinions here. But we'll do it anyway." (luckily for me in the end they didn't get the contract)
