This depends on the situation.
As we are in corporate, sometimes lies are necessary to save our clients or customers.
I will definitely lie if it is necessary to save our company repo.
But I will not lie if it hurts some moral values.

Sir,
Firstly I will see, by saying truth what amount of loss is caused, if the loss is less I would prefer truth and if major I'll try to find some other solution. If that doesn't help I would lie as long as it does not harm others.

Even if the worst situation comes, I would like to resign rather betraying the company who has given me food and shelter.

The thing is that the most expensive thing in this world is not a car, house or any other but its the trust and I thing firstly.
I would listen to the problem of why the company is telling me to lie to others, and if I can give a solution to that problem, I would suggest it to the company and try to solve it.
I would try to be honest and it depends on whom I have to speak to. If its the public, I would try not to do so as the company is the cause of the public who consumes the products produced by the company.
So, company should try not to lie and secondly speaking truth can cause a short-term harm but speaking truth and assuring the public that the company will solve it would lead to gain a positive impact in the minds of the society which would build goodwill and the consumer will come to the company and give some solutions on the problem.

Sorry, sir. I will not lie. I respect myself and my organization. If I told to lie to any stakeholders of my organization, it may be benefit for my company temporarily. Definitely not for ever. It will affect the company negatively later.

Well, the company which is based on lies will definitely fail. But if there is a need then for sure I will.
