The first paragraph means Papa Schnee is not afraid of doing more questionable things to get the company ahead. Many questionable things are often seen as inmoral by the common folk, but it all depends on the PoV. It doesn't mean he or the company in general is truly inmoral.

Blake's response, ignore it entirely. She was raised among terrorists with a great hate for humanity and especially the SDC. She has listened to their propaganda and twisted truths all her life. Even though she left, that doesn't mean that she doesn't believe the shit she was told. She left because of different opinions on their methods, but not because of their views. All she says regarding the SDC, needs to be eaten with a lot of salt.

With "I refuse him be the end of it", it means Weiss knows her family name is tainted. The perceived corruption of the SDC has hurt the Schnee family's reputation, and may well drag it under, similar to Electronic Arts. Doesn't mean the company will go down. In fact, let me make an example here with EA.

Clearly corrupt CEOs with overly high standards that won't tolerate even a "good" game and have infamously erased multiple branches of the company known for getting games between 7/10 and 9/10 in quality, just for releasing a game that is a 6. Questionable business practices, such as microtransactions in-game in their console games, installing a fucking spyware when you install Origins that reads all your files 24/7, bribing reviewers, and not giving their workers any freedom of speech.

Despite all that, and winning multiple "worst company of America" awards, EA is still one of the biggest, and richest, gaming companies ever, with about a dozen branches everywhere, and EA's games rarely get anything lower than a 5 at worst, most of them being honestly good by themselves, and despite all their bullshit, they do know about marketing right. Despite being corrupt, and inmoral, they are still big and mighty.

That's the same here with the SDC.
