I've been working in the tech industry for 25 years. I've probably watched 10 different corporate ethics training videos that cover bribery and inappropriate gifts. At the end we have to answer a quiz to prove we weren't asleep.
In all my time I have never had any control over money and no way to bribe someone even if I wanted to.
About 5 years ago I check my email in the morning and there are emails from the corporate legal and PR teams about not answering any questions from reporters about a certain employee. They state this person is no longer an employee.
I immediately google his name and find that he has been arrested on foreign bribery charges.
Everyone in our team was laughing that he must have forgotten to take the mandatory corporate ethics and anti bribery training.
What is the point of making us watch all these videos when we have no budget authority anyway while the C-level execs bribe people?
