Therein was her first ethical dilemma: should she remain quiet about this, or should she share this information with others and see what their response will be?

Her boyfriend gave her worthy advice: keep this to yourself because if your boss is found to be accepting kickbacks, and this revelation results in his removal from the company, her unit may well be disbanded, or otherwise affected in a way unfriendly to existing employees. The fact that Valerie's work visa situation -- she did not have a "green card" -- was largely dependent on the good will and fairness of those in supervisory positions in her company put her in a tight spot. Moreover her ethical decision-making was also stymied temporarily because she was enrolled in a master's program at the University of Chicago, and her continuing with her education was predicated on getting high grades. If she got good grades, her company reimbursed her for her tuition, which was likely a substantial amount of money -- more than a recent immigrant could likely afford. In the event that she would be fired or somehow lose her job because she reported Waters' felonious behavior, she would only have 30 days to find a new job. Her own future was part of her ethical dilemma; would she "out" her boss because it was the ethical thing to do while throwing away her own career and future in the United States?

FOUR: Recommend fully what Valerie should do. She should make no effort to expose the wrongdoing of her boss Waters.

Instead, the first thing she should do is go to the Illinois State Bar Association and arrange for a free referral to an attorney who deals with immigration issues. She could also reach out to www.usimmigrationlawyers.com and receive an initial consultation free of charge from an attorney that fully understands the legal implications vis-a-vis her temporary work visa. She should not sacrifice herself and her future career options, even though her conscience bothers her a lot. She also should continue to perform her work-related duties with excellence, and not tell her colleagues what she knows about Waters.
