It is not immoral to not give 120% to an amoral organization that 1) will only reward the extra work with more work and 2) considers you a replaceable cog. It is a business transaction. You should treat it as such. The company is not your family and your colleagues are not your brothers. You are one mass layoff away from learning that. And no, your "extra productivity" won't save you from it, but bootlicking just might. It's not about how hard you work, but how your work is perceived. You're far more likely to go up in the ladder from becoming buddies with your manager than you are by being the guy that gets his hands dirty and fixes everything when the project catches fire. It is to the company's detriment to promote such a person.
