I was forced to "resign" a full-time job with very good benefits at a big name top 10 university for not rushing unreviewed changes driven by a vendor to the security of a credit-card processing network. Standing up for principles has a non-zero cost, and it is unlikely anyone will stand with you, more often the wagons will circle against you for doing the right thing because it's more convenient for HR. It doesn't matter if you're right, how good of a job you do or how many hours you put in: if you don't go along with illegal, immoral and unethical behavior, you're gone. You're disposable and there's little recourse.
