Re: honest with or without job

If you feel you cannot represent the product honestly, then you need to look for another job. If you believe your employer is being dishonest with customers, and you interact with customers, you may have a duty to disclose some facts about the product, particularly if there are safety issues. On the other hand, for you to advise them of your perceived dishonesty of your employer could have some legal repercussions for you.

I think I'd start looking for other work.
