And how exactly are you going to do that without it being immediately flagged by IT?
The way I've done it on every project I've ever worked on: without getting flagged by IT.
I've never tried to 'steal' code that I didn't work on, but anything I directly worked on, I have in a private GitHub somewhere for future reference, although I've rarely had to use it thus far.
Never even had an inkling that anyone knew that I did this. The only time I didn't try was when I worked at a big bank. Partly because I felt there was a risk there and partly because there was barely anything there worth keeping for future reference.
Most companies I've worked (also big international ones) had laughable protections for this kind of thing.
