sub par

Another way to look at someone tagged as sub par is to see them as undervalued.

Although Michael the tin-pot weasel vice president referred to Eleanor the manager as sub par, she knew that she was undervalued in the organization, and soon left for a job with far better compensation. Michael, on the other hand, found himself fired for consistently treating the company's clients like dirt.
