S4E5: Good job, bad press: would you work for a controversial company?

from Dear comms... · host Beaumont Communications

Working for a company with a difficult reputation (or thinking about it)? You’re not alone. In this episode, Imogen and Amanda dig into the reality of saying yes to jobs in industries like pharma, tobacco, military, or alcohol. They talk ethics, opportunity, and how to know if it’s worth the trade-offs. They share personal stories, practical questions to ask before you accept, and advice for when you know it’s time to move on. Whether you’re considering a leap or looking for a gut check, this one’s for you. Imogen Hitchcock and Amanda Pierce have a clear purpose: creating communications (and communicators) that spark action, drive growth, and build lasting influence. Between them, there’s not a question or crisis they haven’t faced. From the everyday “could you just…” to high-stakes challenges, they’re here to share their insights and help you thrive.They'd love your stars, favourites, and follows. Please, give them the social validation they crave ;)
