Is don't believe this is an "ethics" problem. No reason for existential angst. This is a practical problem. What do you want from the company long term? How do you want to spend your days? Consider the longer term. What happens if they find out you automated something and didn't tell but rather milked it? Do you even care about what their reaction might be? Is this company at all important in your future? (there aren't "right" and "wrong" answers to this, depends on what your goals are). How do you see this ending? How can you make maximum advantage out of the situation while preserving what you want out of the company (including possibly continued employment). As far as I'm aware Moses didn't say anything about these types of situations so you are on your own. But don't be a short term thinker.
