Drag the work out for years and fuck around while collecting a paycheck commensurate with the work completed. Let the company hire the outside contractor.
Then leave, become an outside contractor and you can be the benefactor.
Save exceptional work for small companies that will reward it or your own startup.
If it’s a small company your energy is better spent ingratiating yourself to the inner circle, which doesn’t necessarily entail being effective.
