As this person is not motivated to help people, and they lack drive, this job will be extremely stressful for them.  As someone who is 'in it for the money' this employee will look for shortcuts.  A person who resents being told what to do and who can’t express it will allow that resentment to build up.  

This combination of personality characteristics is fertile ground for a stress claim that expresses the employee’s psychological sense of being overwhelmed, as well as resentment at the organisation.  

While this is building up, this employee is also the kind of person who will “slip under the radar”.  Because they are superficially agreeable they may not attract formal disciplinary complaints.  Nonetheless, they will inevitably be a problem.  When corrected because they cut corners, this person is unlikely to reflect on their own performance.  Instead, they will blame other people.   The unexpressed resentment will lead to quietly complaining to other staff and “white anting” the administration.
