If you're that guy and you have a secure job it means you write models no one ever sees in a company which doesn't know or respect data, or you work in some data science factory as a small cog of a fairly well oiled team. The latter does happen from time to time, but it's often the former.

In every other place, your job is on the line to be erased because people will soon realize no one wants a wise-ass who doesn't actually contribute much to the bottom-line in the end.
