Where is it ethical to work?

I'm coming to the conclusion, pretty much nowhere is inscrutable and free from scandal in one form or another.

However that doesn't give us a pass to be glib and just throw our hands up and say, it's all bad who cares, get money. Nothing positive comes from cynicism.

It's especially important to call this out when companies are talking about "making the world better" or otherwise making broad statements about them being a positive force in the world. It's incongruous between reality and their public relations, and that needs to be talked about.

Totally agree. I think a good example is the tobacco industry.
