Serious whistleblowing - does it work or back fire?

[Dark Knight]

when grievances fell on deaf ears in the organization and you realized the local HR Team cannot be trusted, do you resort to whistleblowing anonymously and let the HQ aware of the situation? For those who have ever tried, does it work or does it back fire eventually?
Do share your experience here.

Depends on who you report it to. If like anonymous, you report it to the world, it will be devastating. Kangaroo courts and other tricks will no longer work.

Supposing the manager of the department has been very ruthless to the fellow colleagues.
What if we report it to the VP of the department, HR Director and maybe even CEO?

This kind of reporting is dependent on your understanding of the business politics in the org. Usually, for MNCs here, all kinds of unthinkable shits are condoned. Mountains high emperor far. MNCs are in Singapore not because of the marketing BS of Singapore being efficient with hardworking and intelligent purposes. It is for tax avoidance purposes. Because the Lees have made this place too expensive, US MNCs have moved a lot of operations to the Philippines, which is a total joke, not because the people are dumber but compliance - the holy word in MNCs - is non-existent. I have witnessed cases where all are in cahoots. CEO sometimes know but condones as the business objectives are still achieved. Whistleblowing and creating uncertainty for a more ideal world may whack overall company performance. Look at our Leemasek Holdings - you tell me.

BTW, Singaporeans are the gongkia that take compliance seriously burning their nights and weekends to achieve a pat on the back. Filipinos and other races, even including ang mohs here who are not management? What do you think?

Must follow your conscience just do it.

The Almighty will do the rest!
