Sir your company is not a small entity. It follows transparency & accuracy in all its transactions & activities. I don't think that a situation will ever arise in which I have to say a lie but if it is not the case then I will follow the truth & would not lie if it is not in public interest.

It totally depends upon the situation. If lying is the last option to tackle the situation for my company I have to do it but only if it is the last, otherwise I will use my creativity to deal with the situation because in life we always have the second option. We just need to find it and make it count.

Lying would probably cause an unwanted warranty of success. So, I will resolve the issues attentively to the best of my knowledge but if the situation requires lying for the benefit of the company, in the meantime, I will probably lie but I will be very cautious not to backfire the company or assets.

Sorry to say sir but I'm sure there would not be any company who would make their employees to speak lies, getting short term benefits is like nothing and I cannot lie to the company in which I work, it would be better if we can make a better conclusion so that there would be no need to speak lies.

I think if I will tell lie it means something is wrong with service or product or both. In that particular situation, I will try to remove the problem as far as possible but I never tell a lie because everything will disclose sooner or later and also the reputation of the company also lost. Thanks.

I will try my best not to lie to the company but if the problem persists and in anyhow if it helps the growth of the company by not harming any of the assets in the company.
I will lie and I will make sure that everything is performed correctly and will be at balanced after my lies are exposed.

Yes, sir I could lie for the sake of the company,
Sometimes, nothing can go perfectly every time.
So subconsciously, I could lie in intense situations to protect the image of the company. Ethically, that might be wrong and might be handled with truth, but it depends on who we are dealing with.

Hiding of company secrets to only way is lie when it may opposite issue to company or employee but it will reduce your dignity and self-respect from an employee so think twice to lie to maintain all of above things.
When good things will happen due to lie, is not a big issue in that situation.

Sir lying is a sin, but if the company would go bankrupt if I wouldn't lie then I would lie on behalf of the company but later on work on that lie or situation and ultimately turn it to be the truth and face my customers with confidence and would not regret later for the lie I have spoken.

Yes, if my lie can make a good and positive impact on majority of people and company. Lord krishna who is god of satya, karam, dharam and vachana had also lied in situations which can cause a good impact on others, then who am I just a human!
So, I will definitely lie in such situations.
