 Answers of Dilemma
1. What starting salary will you give Gabriel? What salary represents the minimum offer
you would accept? If these two numbers are different, why? Does giving Gabriel a
different number than your “internal” number violate Jekyll Corporation’s transparent
culture? Why or why not?

Assuming that the job I am being offered at Jekyll Corporation is a managerial job, the
starting annual salary I will give Gabriel is $80,000, while the minimum offer I will accept
would be $70,00. These two numbers are different because although Jekyll Corporation is
known as being financially stable, I have to remember that I am fresh out of college and it is
a job that is in my career path, therefore I must be willing to negotiate with the corporation
if I truly want the position. I do not think that giving Gabriel a different number than my
“internal” number violates Jekyll Corporation’s transparent culture because I am not
keeping any secrets. I see my “internal” number as a prospective personal  goal, while I must
realize that my starting salary needs to be a more realistic number, which is why I give
Gabriel a different value.

2. Assume you’ve received another offer, this one from Hyde Associates. Like the Jekyll
job, this position is on your chosen career path and in the consumer products industry.
Assume, however, that you’ve read in the news that “Hyde Associates has been criticized
for unsustainable manufacturing practices that may be harmful to the environment. It has
further been criticized for unfair trade practices and for employing underage
children”. Would that change whether you’d be willing to take the job? Why or why not? 

If I was given a similar offer on my chosen career path from Hyde Associates but read that
they have practices that may harm the environment, have unfair trade practices, and
employ underage children, it would definitely change whether I would take the job. As soon
as I read about those practices of Hyde Associates it would be enough to make me turn
down the job. Not only are their acts unethical, but it would also make me worry about the
productivity and survival of the company. When I take the first job out of college and on my
career path I want it to be successful, so it needs to be with a prosperous company that has
a well-established, credible name. With the information released about Hyde Associates,  I
would be concerned that the company would quickly lose its revenue and therefore go out
of business, which would leave me unemployed and with a lack of job experience.

3. These scenarios are based on studies of corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices
that show consumers generally charge a kind of rent to companies that do not practice
CSR. In other words, they generally expect a substantial discount in order to buy a product
from Hyde rather than from Jekyll. For example, if Jekyll and Hyde sold coffee, people
would pay a premium of $1.40 to buy coffee from Jekyll and demand a discount of $2.40
to buy Hyde coffee. Do you think this preference translates into job choice decisions? Why
or why not?
Just as consumers usually charge “rent” to companies who do not practice corporate social
responsibility (CSR), I think that preference definitely translates into job choice decisions as
well. The customers who are charging the “rent” are the same individuals who are looking
for jobs, so their mindset on the situation of CSR will most likely stay the same. When
making a job choice between Jekyll and Hyde, for example, the potential employee will want
to consider the success of the company because that will parallel the success of their own
job. Since Hyde must sell products cheaper to make any sales at all, that means they have a
smaller amount of money for their employees. However, since customers are willing to pay
premiums at Jekyll they are much better offer and therefore can afford to treat and pay
their employees better.
