It's not like the security guard at all, the security guard is not lying or consciously giving a false sense of what his contributions to the team are.

So you'd be lying to your managers with the end goal of behaving as the company expects you to. This kind of internal tension is normal in lots of organizational structures. It's better if no one has to lie but it isn't (in my opinion) a disaster or anything.
