One of the negatives for any compliance program is that internal whistleblowers, employees who want to do the right thing and report instances of fraud, bribery, and corruption, are frustrated in attempts to do so. This is not the situation where whistleblowers are actively and openly retaliated against for coming forward, such as what occurred in the Wells Fargo fraudulent accounts scandal. This is when someone wants to come forward or does come forward, but the information they bring forward is not acted upon.
