Juliet's in it for herself. She's not doing it our of some great loyalty to Ben, she's doing it because it's the only way she thinks she can get off the island. IF she sees a way to side with the Losties and get off the island, she would, but she is far too aware of how much control Ben has over things so it would take an extraordinary circumstance.

I agree that she's in it for herself, which makes me think that perhaps she is planning to double cross Ben and the Others in the end.

I can't wait to see Jack's reaction when he realizes he's been played by her, it that is indeed the case.

I'd be surprised if that were the case. She doesn't seem to be thinking that far ahead. While she doesn't have any great love for Ben at this point, I think she still respects his power over what goes on on the island. I think she can be persuaded (especially if, say, Locke convinces her that Ben let him blow up the submarine) but at this point I'm pretty sure she is on board with Ben for the sole reason that she doesn't see any other way off the island.
