I thought the whole point of a phillips head is that they do cam out so you don't break the screw?
I've had really good luck with tips with ridges...
Something I found online.

The widely popular Phillips head attempts to solve this problem by only tolerating a certain amount of circular torque before camming. I find this particularly annoying, as it’s a major pain to try to remove an older Phillips from a door frame/motorcycle/toy. I usually end up stripping the head and making it nearly unusable. Phillips II has non-magnetic stick ‘ridges’ that reduce camming out. Another variation on the Phillips is PoziDrive. It has secondary “Vs” that give more points for the screwdriver to grab as is twisting. There are tons of variations on this, but they all work similarly.
