Answer: 4. unrealistic performance goals.

Explanation:

Unipeg Corporation has a standardized performance target across the globe which is high enough on its own without having to account for environmental constraints.

Penalizing the Employees for these shortfalls has led to them falsifying data and that is down to the unrealistic nature of Unipeg's designs.
