At my former job, I saved a ridiculous number of email chains that showed my objections and the management reply to just do it in a folder I creatively named “CYA”.
And when’s the last time you actually needed that folder? At one of my employers they were openly embezzling public (EU) funds. I did report that to the authorities, they are still hot on the case with no results 2 years later.
Nothing has consequences, at most a bit of bad PR, or fines that get paid from your bonuses that you aren’t getting.
I had something similar happen. Had a boss on a job that didn’t like me so when the inevitable complaint came, I presented all of my CYA data to my manager, proving that the accusations were wrong. He couldn’t have cared less.
