Introduction Valerie is an immigrant employee who works for the US-based fragrance firm. She is working under a temporary visa. As this employee carries on her activities, she encounters an ethical issue evidenced by invoices written by her bosses’ consultancy firm to the organization’s competitors. The manager is violating company protocol by receiving kickbacks from the organization’s stakeholders. The manager’s receiving money from the organization’s supplier of fragrances is a clear manifestation of unethical behavior.
