I think the lightworker more identifies with what you're calling "real consciousness" while the darkworker identifies with what you're calling "ego."
It's deeper than this, I think. The darkworker sees what you're understanding to be the "ego" as the only real thing and then uses what you call "real consciousness" to his "ego's" advantage. The lightworker does the opposite, he uses the "ego" to empower the "real consciousness."
In the television show Futurama, Fry is conflicted because he finds out his best friend is the person that stole the expensive cargo he was delivering that was stolen. When confronting his friend, Bender, about the auspices of good and evil, (something along the lines of "How can I ever choose between Good and Evil!?") Bender replies "Uh, they're both fine choices. Take your pick!"
A darkworker can be conscious of his "ego"; better yet, a darkworker is DEFINITELY conscious of his "ego." Darkworkers CHOOSE to embrace this ego. Lightworkers CHOOSE to embrace "real consciousness." Don't be good because everyone wants or expects you to be, because trust me, most of them do not even attempt to hold themselves to their own standards. If you're going to be 'evil,' you may as well embrace it for what it is and wield it artfully.
