I was told that I gave one of our young engineers a "crisis of conscience" for telling him about how a product we were developing needed some more work and testing because we didn't have enough data on it to release it for use.
Somehow management decided that I was poisoning the company and was toxic for not releasing a partially tested product that could either get people sick or set things on fire and then get people sick.
I was told to get on board and apologize to the young engineer for being a bad example or leave. I started polishing my resume, then turned in my resignation.
I spoke to the young engineer in a friendly and non-acusatory manner and he denied staying any of that to management, he claimed he understood what I was telling him and he agreed with my statements. We still keep in touch.

A company that doesn’t listen to its experts shouldn’t be around. It’s part of why they pay you for your skills.
