In a controversial and unusual move, an employee of the internet company Shatel, who has no managerial experience, has been appointed as the security officer and receives a salary equivalent to 300 million tomans. This individual is making every effort to "officially hire" and secure his position by threatening board members and making false claims of connections with the Ministry of Intelligence.
Silence of Regulatory Bodies
This concerning situation raises many questions. Why have the regulatory bodies, which are responsible for overseeing activities and hiring in companies, remained silent in the face of such pressures for formalization and stabilization with criminal claims? Does this silence imply approval of such behaviors or is it a sign of the inability of these bodies to combat corruption and rent-seeking?
This employee is exerting pressure on the board of directors in an attempt to act as a "culprit" with power and establish his position in the company. This issue could have serious repercussions for Shatel and other related entities. Are the officials of this company seeking to expose this matter or are they trying to keep it hidden from view?
This situation may remind one of recurring stories in the world of Iranian businesses, where rent-seeking and corruption are spreading as an undeniable habit. This issue not only damages Shatel's credibility but will also negatively impact the entire information technology industry.
Ultimately, the question is: Is it not time for regulatory bodies to more decisively address these issues and prevent corruption and rent-seeking in large companies?
