All these archetypes can be consolidated to one: "narcissist".

  Capitalism is fundamentally about self-interest. Narcissism is fundamentally about self-interest. In corporate workplaces, teamwork is simply a temporary treaty imposed by higher level capitalists/narcissists so that you do their bidding, not yours. If you are working in a corporation, you are almost certainly doing things for narcissistic reasons (for some definition of narcissism/self-interest/self-gratification/self-actualization). Many of the "antipatterns" are really defense mechanisms from the fundamental hobbesian nature of a workplace.
