I assume people who are sufficiently self-centered that they've convinced themselves that this is fine because it obviously is if you can get away with it are incredibly selfish and not nearly as clever as they think they are in many other ways as well.

Personally if I were aware, I'd report them because I don't want to be either complicit or a liar if it comes out and I'm asked.

I can't wait until you get laid-off/fired unjustly. I had this same attitude until I got laid off even though I was a high-performer (4/5 and 5/5 on all my bi-yearly reviews).

Now, I'm in it for me and only me. Fuck these companies, they don't care about you so why should I care? I perform to the expectations of my job description but forget going above and beyond.

I honestly don't understand why someone with your sort of attitude doesn't become a freelancer/consultant. If I hated working for companies that much, pretty much no amount of incremental salary would persuade me to not go my own way.

I don't know about you but I think my price is somewhere in the mid-high six figures TCO :-)

I guess I don't care enough about money to spend my time in a situation I find horrible.
