Unethical Companies



An unethical company is a company which lacks moral rules/ standards towards their employees. Basically the way they manage their businesses can be unfair and cruel to those working within the business.

The unethical company i have chosen is Apple.



Apple -

Apple is an american multinational technology company that designs, develops and sells electronics ,computer software and online services.It was founded on  April 1st 1976 in Cupertino , California, USA.

Apple relies on child slave labor , working in dangerous conditions for 10 hours a day .These children are also exposed to cancerous vapours which could potentially kill them .The conditions are developing badly as they now have installed anti suicide nets to prevent losing workers.Living in poor conditions and barely surviving , its hardly fair at all for the amount they produce daily.

Apple have hired illegal staff that are owed millions of dollars in unpaid wages for the hours they have worked.The training for new members of staff lasts for only 2 hours and includes no safety information.All of this is due to the high and popular demand of apple products; as they continue to release new products yearly.


My task is to produce a subversive advert on Photoshop . My plan  (mock up) is shown below.Apple's original slogan is think different , i have changed this to think slavery as i think this will have a powerful effect upon viewers and make them think twice about what they purchase.

Shown below is my subversive advert created on photoshop and underneath was the plan for it before it was designed.
