- kevan 3y ago> III. Professional Obligations > 1. Engineers shall be guided in all their relations by the highest standards of honesty and integrity. > ... > b. Engineers shall advise their clients or employers when they believe a project will not be successful. There's nuance around how hard you should push back on bad requests and where ownership/accountability and decision-making responsibility ultimately lie but providing professional judgement/advise/opinions is definitely in bounds for engineers.
