Ever wonder what really happens when someone speaks up inside a big company? Spoiler: it’s not a slow clap and a corner office. In this episode of Monster in My Closet, we dive into the murky world of whistleblowing—why it’s risky, how corporations protect themselves instead of the truth, and what it means for the rest of us.
We’re taking on three hard-hitting questions:
🔹 Do corporations prioritize self-preservation over protecting employees—and why?
🔹 What actually happens to whistleblowers inside these self-healing systems?
🔹 Can accountability exist in a structure designed to expel “irritants”?
Expect sharp insights, raw truths, and yes, a few conspiracy theories that didn’t make it past the AI censors. We break down:
✅ The HR illusion and why it’s not your personal rescue squad
✅ The biological metaphor that explains why companies eject truth-tellers
✅ When it’s smarter to speak up—and when it’s smarter to walk away
This one’s for the rule followers, the system challengers, and anyone who’s ever wondered if telling the truth is worth the cost.
