It is something you should be willing to quit your job over. Learn from your experience, act now and keep your head high.

Or, compromise, say nothing, feel bad for years, and lose your self-esteem.

It's stolen goods, period. If a CEO is willing to behave like that, what else will they do? Trust me, it will only get worse.

I disagree. It might be a reason to look for employment elsewhere, but jumping ship right off the bat would be pretty unwise, especially if you have responsibilities to think about (family, bills, eating, that kind of thing).

This is the same as any moral argument, whereby you advise someone not to intervene in a situation where they could help, because of a possible danger.

There is right, and then there is smart.

It's difficult to say that action would be noticed or appreciated and the danger may not be realized but can't be ignored.

But heros do dumb things because they're right.
