[I’m a mid level corporate executive in a really large company.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/great-acting-as-antagonists-in-films-who-are-not-really-bad-evil-but-just-serious-a-holes/1022682/40?) It’s very difficult to get noticed, let alone promoted, unless you are willing to take risks.

I got a lead on a possible source for something that might be a very profitable product. In order to protect my position, I let no one in on what I knew. I sent our on-site representatives to investigate, but I decided not to warn them of any potential dangers. People were…hurt. It didn’t go well.

What else could I do? What if it didn’t even exist, huh? I didn’t know! So now, if I went in and made a major security issue out of it, everybody steps in. Administration steps in, and there are no exclusive rights for anybody; nobody wins. So I made a decision and it was… wrong. It was a bad call.

AITA?
