In order for employees to know what is right or what is wrong in the workplace they must follow the standards that is business ethics. For the logos that were used in my designs, I was given a guideline to follow to keep the look and theme of the company consistent. In no way should I have changed the color or the style of the logo as it was not my place to do so. Every design that I’ve done all flowed together because I used the logo I was required to use but also using the color palette that was in the guideline as well.

To keep company information private and away from the public eye comes in the form of a nondisclosure agreement. After the employer lays out in writing what the employer should not say outside of their work it will be then up to the employee to uphold to that agreement, if not it can cause a rift between the employer and employee. As for my internship position, my employer did not require me to sign a nondisclosures agreement.
