I like many aspects of my job, but the most important thing for me is working for the right company, in the right industry and with the potential for growth, and my current position offers none of those things.

So if you have a good credit score it’s more peace of mind for your executive and company. There are numerous examples of people stealing from companies or doing illegal things.
