It seriously depends on the situation. If it helps society, customers, the company and me, then I will. I hate lying if it damages others.

Sir, for me, it will depend on the situation. I will always try to tell the truth; my first choice will never be to lie.

However, if there is a situation in which I must lie and my lying will not hurt the company, benefit the company, and, most importantly, no one will object to my lying, then only I will consider lying.

I will not lie for the company at all but if the situation is demanding and speaking a lie will help in the company's growth, then first I will think about all the consequences of that lie, the worst situations that can occur. I will prepare answers for those situations in advance and after assuring that it does not negatively affect my job.

I believe that this situation depends on how you handle it, there is a 90% chance that if you lie, even if it is said positively, it may lead to some other result, but if you do your work by speaking the truth, then next time such a situation will not be created and trust will be built. I would prefer to say the truth.

I believe in maintaining honesty and integrity in all professional interactions. I wouldn't lie to cover up mistakes or actions that could affect my or the company's reputation negatively. However, if withholding the truth could save a life or significantly benefit someone without causing harm, I would carefully consider the ethical implications before making a decision.

To lie for the company probably depends upon the assurance given by them that the further circumstances don't affect my career growth.

It depends on the situation, if the lie is beneficial for our company's reputation and does not harm any person then I'll say lie in this situation.

I will lie positively so that no one feels hurt.
