If your company is too big to keep its own employees from committing crimes, it's too big.

The more important thing isn't the number per say (although they should be concerned) but how they are respond to it when they find out - and willfull ignorance is the same as knowing.

If say the Catholic Church's response to their sex abuse scandal was to turn over all evidence to the authorities and maybe make own judgements in parallel to defrock or excommunicate based upon the evidence they would be morally upstanding even if their judgement differed in some cases as "not enough evidence by our standard / not enough to be illegal but violates our scriptural standards".

Because they sheltered them for decades their moral authority is a joke and all priests being pedophiles is a dark comedy cliche.

No company bigger than 100 people is capable of such a thing. Do you seriously think that companies larger than 100 people should not exist?
I’d argue that no company bigger than 1 person is capable of such a thing.
I kind of agree, but I was being generous with 100.
