The company should not get the full refund when it was the employee who was inconvenienced and more importantly took the initiative to make a complaint resulting in compensation. If I know in advance my efforts to seek redress for poor treatment are only going to line my employer's pockets then I am not going to spend an instant of my time complaining about anything.
