#ethics

We should never want to, nor stand for, living in a society where corporations such as Humana can simply do WHATEVER they want to do.

There are written laws for which they mist adhere to AND there are unwritten laws, which we often call morals, ethics, and goodwill, which these corporations should adhere to.

Humana is failing on both fronts of written and unwritten laws.

Time they either cease to exist as a corporation or please leave Louisville as your home base so that your stench of corruption will not rub off on other local corporations, communities, and our citizens.

I could not find MyComputerCareer in the Layoff website, but it should be. This company experienced regular layoffs, almost as if they were on a 2-3 year schedule. They have these values that are not upheld, love, ethics, excellence, customer first. They are a typical predatory institutiton that the DOE, DOL and DOJ should look into.

Can the H1B petitions be filed simultaneously after already laying off 21K and now another similar double digit number within 3 months.

This is absolute mockery of immigration system.

It is deeply hypocritical for Centene to champion initiatives against homelessness while terminating thousands of employees and putting them at risk of losing their homes. Executive compensation of twenty million dollars a year while the workforce faces displacement is entirely indefensible. Centene CEO with her 20 million a year is really diabolical.

Under HK’s “leadership”, U.S. Bank has gotten so desperate as to schedule unsolicited client appointments on bankers’ schedules.
Unbeknownst to the banker, the client has not requested any appointment. The banker calls the client, thinking that he or she is an interested client seeking U.S. Banks services, and instead gets an earful, informing them that, in fact, they requested no such appointment and in some cases haven’t solicited U.S. Banks services in years.
Sometimes up to 4-5 appointments getting added to banker’s schedules, all of them undesired and unsolicited.
So the bank’s new approach is essentially spray and prey.
How much further a step is another account opening scandal from this type of conduct? GK must be so proud.

HR’s KPI seems simple: fire smoothly as many people as possible. No fairness, no compassion, no consideration just cut people ruthlessly to protect their own positions. Apparently, job security in HR means making sure everyone else loses theirs first.

Our planet is literally collapsing and local communities are being fu---d by data centers.

This ramping up of AI feels insanely near sighted, selfish, and unethical.

I'm having a hard time stomaching it. There are no real business LEADERS in the world anymore. Just sheep who think about nothing but the next quarter.

Dear ex members of the ELT,
It has now been proven that you were completely remiss and liable for the total destruction of this once great company. You placed personal ambition above fiduciary duty, personal gain and opulence above shareholder value and introduced a culture where sycophants were promoted and prudent employees dismissed. It is time you put your hands up and explained and took account for this. You have hurt a great many people, their families and loved ones along the way. Whilst at least one of you is a known narcissist, the silence is deafening. Where is this empathy that you all so dearly told us we must have?

The Indian Enforcement Directorate (ED) says more than 1,000 Truist Bank debit cards were allegedly distributed in India in the name "Santosh Kumar” and alleges this change was made to conceal the identities of the actual users and avoid drawing attention from law enforcement.

How is this possible from an internal controls PoV? Does that mean we have special accounts that can have multiple cards issued and the previous cards not automatically cancelled?

Everyone is debating GCC and pointing fingers at India or coining terms usb India.
Surprised no one is talking about what could be the real governance question.
For example, Masud Amd, Head of AI under WCIB reporting to Qasim Khan(Chicago hub) and S Sheikh, Head of AI under Digital reporting to PM (Chicago hub) are reportedly husband and wife and both work in the Doc Intelligence space leading AI.
The real question isn’t where anyone is from—it’s whether appropriate conflict-of-interest disclosures, governance, and ethical safeguards are in place. How does the Ethics Office ensure that situations like this are reviewed and managed transparently? Are the same standards applied consistently across all employees, regardless of role or seniority?
The management of WCIB Technology under QM Khan was consistently perceived as biased inclusive Gender, Race, and Ethnicity

these folks will never get in trouble for unprofessiomal behavior issues, right?

Does it make sense for companies to hired h1bs while layoffs are ongoing?

I've seen lots of engineers who are on visa.
No basic coding skills or any work ethics.
Been in industry for over 25 years.
Seen enough of visa scams . Ford should stop hiring Visas!!

Today they posted a link to the town hall recording. I missed the event so I was looking forward to watching.
Watched the entire recording but it was only 38 minutes long for an hour long call!
They deleted the Q&A!!!!
Talk about a lack of trust that I will ever have that they will accurately provide recordings.
Lack of ethics to edit the town hall.

Has anybody ever reported their PL to ethics or HR? They are giving easier assignments to their friends and I am not meeting metrics. Now have a weekly meeting with them and am sure they are looking to try to fire me to not have to pay severance. Trying to see if anybody has had any experience with escalation.

Corporate managers are actively exploiting the immigration system, practicing race and caste discrimination, and displacing qualified U.S. citizens.

Your immediate action is required to stop them.If you witness visa fraud, discriminatory favoritism based on race or caste, or hidden Labor Condition Application (LCA) postings, you have a civic and legal duty to blow the whistle.

Federal agencies rely directly on worker reports to shut down these illegal operations, penalize corrupt management, and enforce fair hiring practices.

Do not remain silent while corporate entities bypass federal law at the expense of American workers.Take action immediately by preserving evidence and filing formal complaints through these critical federal channels:

Document LCA Violations: Take clear photographs of mandatory Labor Condition Application (LCA) postings as physical evidence. Federal law requires these to be conspicuously displayed on corporate notice boards, breakroom bulletin boards, or directly inside manager and contractor rooms.

USCIS Fraud Detection: Submit explicit details of visa manipulation directly via the USCIS Tip Form at uscis.govDepartment of Labor:

File a formal workforce exploitation complaint with the DOL Wage and Hour Division at dol.gov

Civil Rights Violations: Report the displacement of citizen employees, racial bias, or caste discrimination to the DHS Civil Rights Complaint Portal at dhs.gov

EEOC Enforcement: Trigger a formal federal investigation into national origin, race, or caste-based discrimination via the EEOC Public Portal at eeoc.gov

All Internal hiring/firing immigration fraud must be well documented. Please be a whistleblower to report the fraudsters.
Also, report the unethical layoffs of American employees and any illegal offshoring practices.

What do you think is going to happen?

With a company that is so anti employee, with literally NO regard for tenure, loyalty, performance...should we expect any transparency at all?

Managers are complicit basically just trying to assure their salary continues.

Does Dell need to be investigated for violations in their termination process?

Some koreans like hajdini are taking over, and HR are falling in line with these director's and managing directors.

Serious question for current and former Nike employees:

At what point does internal politics become corruption?

Do you think Nike has crossed that line? If so, where do you see it most, promotions, hiring, performance reviews, vendor relationships, executive decision-making, or somewhere else?

Looking for thoughtful discussion based on firsthand experience.

The fact that she can get on an all-company townhall and just blatantly lie is wild. My faith in this company has fallen so far that I no longer even trust USB to manage my money. Have been transferring my and my parents accounts to other institutions. This townhall just strongly confirmed that decision.

Juan just casually exposed that he and the Life company and the Bank president are mining member financial transactions in the Bank to determine what they pay other life insurance companies for life policies and annuities!!! That is illegal and unethical, with serious implications to the sanctity of member data he is supposed to protect. Here is what AI says. While legal under loopholes in federal laws like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, consumers and ethicists generally consider this practice a breach of trust. Mining transaction data for the explicit purpose of intercepting competitor business exploits a fiduciary relationship for aggressive cross-selling.Key Ethical ArgumentsBreach of Trust: Historically, consumers view bank data as a tool for security and basic transaction processing, not as a lead-generation product for the bank's own profit centers.Lack of Transparency: Many customers remain unaware that their highly sensitive transaction histories are being combed to create targeted marketing profiles.Coercive Cross-Selling: Approaching a customer with a competing life insurance offer directly after they pay a premium can feel predatory and invasive.Current Industry ContextFinancial institutions utilize advanced predictive models to segment customers and minimize "churn" (the rate at which customers leave for competitors). However, the ethical line is crossed for many when defensive churn-prevention shifts into we-ponizing personal transaction data to undercut competitor pricing.Could you tell me which specific bank or financial institution you are looking into? I can help you find their exact privacy policies and opt-out instructions.

I recently joined Intel , first off during pay negotiation the HR said the pay range in the job description is a typo and their internal system is showing a much smaller pay range. Is this ethical ?

Secondly, Within the first month I am putting in several afterhours late nights to meet with Asia folks. This was not mentioned in the job description or interview. Is this ethical ? What would happen if I refuse late night hours.

Has anyone else noticed or heard about ongoing ethics and leadership culture issues in Nike’s Sports Marketing group?
There’s been significant turnover at the senior levels over the past couple of years. Some current and former employees are saying the ethical standards and decision-making in the group still need real improvement, even with new leadership in place.
Wondering if others have seen similar issues or if things are actually getting better.
Appreciate any honest takes.

Is there a requirement for VP's to be sociopaths? They seem to be required to lack empathy or remorse and engage in manipulative behavior to achieve that level.

It is truly disturbing to watch them in action.

I think the annual RIFs are some kind of sick psychopathic game they love to play on us to keep people in line. It must give them pleasure to destroy people's lives year after year for no reason other than to advance their own career.

I see the agony on this site. Many of you are uncertain about your future.

I just want to share with you. In a team call, CEO said a couple of years ago. “I love it. It’s like playing a video game, haha haha” It was in the context of managing
the business and reorganizing people. I know many of you probably we on the call. It’s really sad, but it’s the reality of the tech business. I never expected to hear from a CEO.
But, he really is transparent. Enjoys the RSUs. It all fun and video games.

I don’t know how else to say it. The major rise in stock has nothing to do with what we actually produce. It’s got everything to do with layoffs, politics and marketing.

We’ve got government officials like our president making major stock investments in the company and then publicly backing it.

The corruption is embedded throughout Dell.

Imagine having such disregard of your employees and company that you’d be so pathetically corrupt to literally do anything for a buck?

They got rid of anyone with any ethical value at the leadership level at this point so you’ve just got a bunch of spineless, cowards at the c-suite and SVP level who will literally do anything for a buck. Anything.

These guys are legends in their own minds though. At the end of the day, when they go into Home Depot, they’re just a guy in Home Depot. That’s what they hate.

Pathetic, pathetic life.

MST home dispatch tech use and abuse company assets. They drive 100K-200K bucket trucks to their home and back to their home garage everyday. Big V8 6.3 L engines use a lot of gas and insurance on top. Also, with MST high pay and only have .5 job per tech a day per tech how is that saving company money and liability.
There are rules to follow when joining home dispatch program. Following the rules helps save gas and time and wear and tear on a vehicle used to drive to work and to home. But MSTs abuse this program from driving to the garage every day and dispatching at the garage. Making a stop at the grocery store to grocery shop in the company vehicle before driving home. Not closing your last job at the job site and instead, drive home and being still dispatched on your work ticket and then closing the job when you arrive home. I follow the rules, and I do not want the home dispatch program to go away because of MSTs taking advantage of the abuse. Also, MST managers are favoring many MSTs and letting the home dispatch MSTs do what ever they want. STOP ABUSING THE HOME DISPATCH PROGRAM YOU MSTs. You know who you are...

I’m stupid and I still live in my parent's basement. How about you?

Please be aware of this visa abuse. It is favoring H1B employees over citizens. It is silently laying off US citizens.

Lie your a-s off about why you can't be working Thursday:
Your throat is raw, you lost your voice, you are sick.
Someone close to you died.
Dropped your phone and lost all of your contact numbers.
Etc..

Terrible things have been done throughout history by "regular" people at the direction of those "above" them. Don't be one of those people. Stand up, find another job, whatever you need to do to keep some modicum of self respect and respect for your fellow human.

I’ve seen so many people post on LinkedIn today that this is their last day at Cisco. Very similar to when I was laid off as It’s all about cost nothing to do with refocusing on AI. Everyone who looks to be impacted was 20+ years there so high dollar resources. They managed to throw in a few younger people to avoid the lawsuit.

Twenty-six Meta employees have filed a lawsuit alleging the company used AI to select workers for layoffs. The plaintiffs claim the AI systems disproportionately affected those with disabilities or on medical leave. They are seeking a court order to halt upcoming layoffs scheduled for July 22. Meta denies the allegations, stating that human decisions, not AI, drove workforce changes. This marks a novel legal challenge against AI's role in employment termination.

It’s sad how supervisors can assist vendors by falsifying invoices, approve them for payment, receive kickbacks, wrongfully accuse and frame pumpers / foreman of spills and misplaced “stolen” loads. Make it through layoffs, continue to hide costs with zero visibility to partners. Bill partners to death because COP working interest owners aren’t aware of the internal atrocities and horrific expense mismanagement. Lie to the public with fictional SPIRIT values, goals and beliefs then go to church on Sunday as a cherry on top of this delicious sundae. Why do what is morally right when you can make millions lying to the public and yourself? Upper management is better than the mob! #staypoor #orgetrich #justice #money

If I hear the word NAN one more time. Why does US Bank not get it. No one has time for that cr-p. I have never seen branch more micromanaged than they are right now. TOXIC place to work with unethical behavior happening all over the place. Wish this
company would just go belly up and I cannot wait to get the F out.

Anyone else on a “hybrid” team where their entire management chains lives 2.5 hours or more from the office? my management chain is cheating the company- they dont like commuting so they show up around 10am, leave at 2pm, and barely do anything. how is this allowed? when will HR fire people like this? my director joins meetings from recreational events and encourages us all to cheat Verizon. basically if we dont tell on him- he wont tell on us. somewhat new to the company and the behavior of leaders here is atrocious. my AD is similar. he always takes off friday

How seriously does Medtronic HR or ethics dept take these, and are they ultimately just gonna protect management and sweep things under the rug or what? Is it worth making a good faith complaint!

I see some notes here saying hot line is not HR. A few years ago, I called the company hotline to report an unethical practice. I left a message, and the next morning someone called me back saying they were from Exxon HR. They told me they needed evidence related to the incident. I explained that I used the hotline because I thought it was anonymous and I didn’t want retaliation. Of course, they had my phone number and could match it to my profile easily. A few weeks later, our department head pulled me aside and said, “Focus on your work, I’ll take care of the incident you raised concerns about.” Neither HR nor I followed up after that.
