Why do any of you use your credit card then? If you've got cash, use it. I'd want to also find another job if my employer wants to rip me off like this.

If the company has established policies about it, and the employees have been informed about beforehand, I don't see any illegalities about it. It's the company's decision to impose rules on its credit card usage. The same way that employees have the choice to use the credit card or not.
