Question

You discover a salesman is receiving kickbacks from your largest customer, analog concerns. the information comes in an anonymous letter. you fail to find the author but the contents are verified. do you :
1. replace the salesman
2. ask for a cut
3. ignore situation

Answer 1

I shall replace the salesman after discovering that a salesman is receiving kickbacks from my largest customer, analog concerns.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In the above mentioned scenario, the salesman is given a kickbacks - "advantages" for either the good relationship that they have maintained with the client or for luring them to always provide them the product/service with discounts.

So in this situation I would obviously replace the salesman because such situations cannot be ignored and there is no assurance that the salesman will not take kickbacks henceforth. And asking for a cut is ethically wrong as the salesman getting the kickbacks.
