Question:

According to employees at General Electric, the frenzy of meeting sales goals left little time to scrutinize phony transactions. In attempting to deal with conflicts between meeting performance standards and ethical behavior, General Electric has stated in its personnel manual that employees should be guided by their sense of honor until inconsistencies between ethical standards and job demands have been resolved. According to a vice-president of the company’s aerospace unit, when employees get the message to achieve their performance goals they should also receive the message that they must comply with the company’s standards for ethical behavior. Give an example in which you know or at least suspect that somebody did not comply with high ethical standards because of job demands. (The ‘‘job’’ could be doing coursework.)
