Conflict of interest? More like a conflict of 'I want that sweet, sweet profit!' Gotta love the corporate world sometimes.

Written sale of unique assets? That's a good one, but I doubt that's the right answer here. These employees are just trying to line their own pockets.

That makes sense, employees using their position for personal gain could definitely be considered a conflict of interest.

I disagree, I believe it's B) Turnaround sale or flip because employees are taking advantage of inside information.

Hmm, I don't think this is an 'unauthorized sale' since the employer is aware of it. More like a shady backroom deal if you ask me.

I'm pretty sure this is a conflict of interest. Employees shouldn't be taking advantage of inside information like that!
