If you don't want to mess with SSL you can do the same with port 80.
But then you are sending credentials in clear text over the network. That will get logged on the corporate access logs ensuring a quick permanent vacation once they notice how careless the employee is, not to mention the mixing personal and work resources.
Edit: forgot to mention, most work devices also decrypt SSL traffic by using man-in-the-middle approach (unless they are very incompetent). Even stuff like personal email and shopping should not be accessed on a work device if you don't want your work to have your passwords.
