Answer

(Fatwa: 424/420=M)

If the work of the company you are employed in is right then your earnings are Halal. As far as the matter of bribe is concerned if it given by compulsion in order to avoid oppression then it is allowable. But, if there is any danger of life or wealth in opposing then it should be avoided.
