Reject role due to ClientCo's unethical products

[BolshieBastard]

Was speaking to an agent the other day. The role looked good but rejected for two reasons. Firstly it was a permie role but also rejected it as it was for one of those pay day loan companies that I can't stand ... online loan sharks

Has anyone else rejected a contract because of the company's product before out of interest?

Yep. A large pharmaceutical near Macclesfield. Jibbed them off due to certain issues I had with the way they tested their products.

I couldn't work for MUFC....

Why not? Take a few laxatives on a daily basis and pebble dash away.

There's a company that uses animals for product research and testing not that far away. Was offered a job there doing some admin when a student and rejected. Couldn't take a contract at any such places.

Apart from that can't think of anywhere else.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

There are very few firms I wouldn't take a contract at because I'm nosey.

Some firms that appear ethical/OK are actually the worse offenders then those that appear wrong initially.

There is also nothing stopping you from bailing out of a contract......

Money is money, I will shell my soul to anyone if the price is right (OMG I think I am an agent)

I doubt you would.

There is something that is always a step to far for someone personally.

I'd love a contract in the online porn industry, just think of the minge benefits....

You'd be making money hand over fist!

Nope, to be honest they are going to be paying someone to do the job, so might as well be me.

Yeah, really creaming it off!
