You can get a 10 year prison sentence or so for bribery. In any country in the world, you can be prosecuted there, or in the US or Europe. You will probably also be fired.

Any large company has an ethics code. Bribing government employees is usually a rather big no-no in that code.

Any large company also makes allowances for differences in local laws and customs when applying their ethics code.

Yeah... no. (The FCA[4] makes that fairly hard)

Amazon: "Employees may not bribe anyone for any reason, whether in dealings with governments or the private sector. " [3]

Apple: "Apple does not offer or accept bribes or kickbacks in any form, and we do not tolerate corruption in connection with any of our business dealings." [2]

Google: "The rule for us at Google is simple – don’t bribe anybody, anytime, for any reason."[1]
