In reading these posts, the problem I see is that most of these ethical
transgressions are not the sort of thing you'd know or find out about
until AFTER you'd worked at a company for a while. And in Enron's case,
even THEN people didn't know until it was too late.
So I think it's a case of Caveat Job Applicatum (my Latin is rusty),
unless you see an ad like this:
Evil kitten-milking factory seeks slim attractive hotties (Lithuanian
only) to wear skimpy attire while selling tobacco to underprivileged
minors, while we gamble away your 401K in Vegas...
