I'm in an industry with a lot of migrant workers, I was asked to write software that would change the time records for migrant workers so they never get overtime.

I said I wouldn't do it unless they showed me the legal advise saying that it was ok. The office sycophant piped up and said "I'll do it". From then on I stopped being invited to meetings and my job transitioned into answering the phone and then out the door.

I hope they jail the developers for 500 years, that's the sort of signal that needs to be sent.

(especially) if you have left this business you should blow the whistle on this. Have you thought about doing it? What are the main barriers?

They probably weren't paying taxes on the overtime either. The IRS pays whistleblowers.
