MY ANSWER

A personal pronoun is incorrect for this context.

whom

A personal pronoun is incorrect for this context.

which

This pronoun indicates a nonessential clause, which is incorrect for this context.

Since the adjective clause refers to a company, it should not use a personal pronoun. Also, since the clause is essential to the reader's understanding of the company in question, the relative pronoun should be "that" rather than "which."
