If you're dumb enough to follow instruction blindly, you'll get what you deserve. (Crap from the boss, stuck in a dead-end job, little or no financial advancement, etc.)
If you're smart enough to see the problems, and choose not to act, you still get what you deserve.
If you're smart enough to see the problems, and choose to speak up and act, you are doing the responsible thing. If that results in you losing your job, good! You can take that to ten other companies and, if they are as smart as you, they will see it, and reward you accordingly.
Now, this is a very tiny example out of what I assume is a much larger project... but, if you're being micromanaged to the level of just some dumb comparator, I can only imagine it is indicative of things much more systemic and worse, as well!
If things really aren't that bad on the whole, then, nevermind, call it general advice...
