If your work in the company is permissible, and you are not involved with bank deposits or the company's dealings with prohibited institutions, then there is no harm in what you take as wages. You should advise the officials to desist from prohibited transactions, acting upon the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; if he cannot, then with his tongue; if he cannot, then with his heart—and that is the weakest of faith." It is preferable to seek work that has no connection to the unlawful.
