Oh wow, really steep fines, less than one year’s salary of the whistleblowers they fucked over in several cases. Less than the yearly compensation of the executives who should be held criminally liable in every case. Essentially no penalty at all.

With fines that low, totally worth it to discourage future whistleblowers considering the seriousness of some of the crimes which they likely will get tiny fines for as well.
