The sense of obligation towards your coworkers is something companies absolutely abuse and exploit. I'm not saying don't have empathy for your fellow human, but people aren't typically incentivized to use best possible solutions if they take more work outside of this obligation so you have to be careful to not let yourself be exploited because of it.
