The film happens inside the Seattle innovative work base camp of a huge cutting-edge

organization. The male workers have not had their awareness raised. Michael Douglas plays
Tom Sanders, a chief engaged with the production of "Corridor," an augmented simulation
database. There are issues on the manufacturing of the software that may endanger a merger. The
“Corridor” is a software program wherein clients remain in the focal point of light bars that track
their movements. They wear a headset that makes the dream that they are meandering the
passageways of a Greco-Roman sanctuary fixed with documenting frameworks. They connect a
hand, and documents materialize, which can be looked and gotten to. At the end of the day, for
countless dollars, occupied heads can accomplish tasks crafted by clerks. The company, Digicom
will be acquired by a larger company and the head of the said company is about to retire. That is
why, he would not like to hear any terrible news about Corridor. In the interim, Douglas
anticipates a promotion - and is stunned to learn it will go rather to a previous darling named
Meredith Johnson (Demi Moore). The day she lands the position, she calls him to her office for a
7 p.m. gathering, pours his #1 wine, and segues straightforwardly into an endeavored assault.

This is now the part of the film which displays unethical behavior in the workplace. First,
sexually assaulting a subordinate and then playing as the victim the next day. What is unusual in
the film is that the assailant is a woman that is why, her claims are more believable than the real
victim which is a man. Sexual harassment is unethical per se, however, doing it in the workplace
makes it a double jeopardy. Worst is a higher-ranking employee did it to a lower-ranking
employee which somehow made the latter hesitant in declining her invitation in doing
provocative acts. Second, there was no memo or notice informing the victim that his privileges
he previously enjoyed along with his position has been lifted. He was clueless with everything
that has been going on around him. Everyone knew, except him. It is unethical to address an
employee like that. He is personally involved in the matter; the company should have informed
him formally – could be in a form of letter or face to face meeting with the head with the clear
intention of reprimanding. Instead, he was blinded and was even crippled while fighting a war he
has a slim chance of winning. Third, business politics was really evident. Nepotism is exercised
in the company which should not be practice, ethically speaking. In promotion, the most
qualified person should be getting the position not the most favorite. But what happens in the
movie is that Meredith – the employee which the head favors the most gets the position. The
company even colluded with her just to destroy the career of Tom – a qualified and promising
employee. They created scandals that would ruin his reputation and competence.

Overall, the film was worth watching despite of it being uncomfortable to watch – ethically and
morally. There are many lessons that the audience can get after watching it. Personally, it taught
me how the corporate world really works. It even shocked me that it was already filthy as early
as 1994. I cannot imagine how filthy it is today. I learned that when a person’s greed takes over,
our ethics and morals would really fly out of the window. Greed mostly gets the best of us.
Lastly, I think the movie is titled disclosure because it revealed to the world the little dark secrets
of the corporate world, what would it take to become a successful woman in the field, and what
kind of sacrifices can one make just to get to the top of the hierarchy. It revealed “Sex is power”.
In a world where men dominate, the best and easiest way for a woman to climb up the ladder is
through sex. That is what the movie attempted to depict – which is a sad reality. Men may be
strong, intelligent, and powerful creatures than women, but women will always be their greatest
downfall.
