No problem.
This is not a make-or-break thing for me, but i do think there’s an important difference between linking to your blog or your personal site or something similar, on the one hand, and linking to the for-profit business that you work for, on the other.
What would we do, for example, if an employee of Coca-Cola or Wal-Mart or Ford decided to join, and then put links to his or her employer’s corporate website? After all, the person can reasonably claim an “association with” the site, as per the rules. And wouldn’t that encourage companies to get dozens of their employees to become members and start bombarding multiple threads with links?
While the OP’s company is no Coca-Cola, i’d bet its employees number well over 100, and probably into the multiple hundreds. As i said above, i’m not trying to rag on B&H here; i think it’s a great company. But i think the general issue needs to be addressed.
Of course, we then run into borderline cases where people use their blogs or other sites to promote money-making aspects of their lives. One example might be Gary “Wombat” Robson’s link to his children’s books in his signature. I think in cases like this, it’s worth dealing with things on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the person’s long-term contribution to the SDMB. It’s clear that Gary did not join the Dope to promote his books, and that any publicity his work might get is peripheral to his membership of the community here.
But allowing new members to march straight in and add links to for-profit enterprises is, in my opinion, a rather problematic policy.
Just my 2c.
