crony
This term carries a strong pejorative weight, suggesting a relationship defined by corruption, nepotism, or a lack of professional integrity. While a friend is someone liked for their personality, a crony is viewed as someone who benefits from an unfair advantage provided by a powerful associate.
It is most frequently encountered in political or corporate contexts to describe "cronyism," where loyalty is rewarded over competence. The word evokes an image of a closed circle of insiders who protect one another's interests at the expense of the public or the organization.
