Unpopular but true: if you don't have conflicts of interest, you aren't really in the game. I don't know any serious business person who doesn't have conflicts. Some manage them as honestly and fairly as possible, others not so much.
It’s not even specifically about the conflicts of interest — although that isn’t great — it’s about the obfuscation of that information, and the direct contradiction with public statements and ‘mission goals’.

Having conflicts doesn't make someone bad.

What is a concrete example?
What if someone is willful opaque about their conflicts?
Read the entire comment, and think.
Yeah if you dont have conflicts of interest you are a looser. There are so few companies that what can one do?
