I've already made up my mind to leave
My manager wants to discuss 2024 goals.I admit I feel bad because I plan to leave at the year mark which is in a few months. This role isn't a good fit and I don't see much growth professionally.I see the discussion as me wasting his time but I also don't want to give away that I'm looking for a new role.

Looking for advice about workplace safety:

Take notes in the meeting, so that it will seem as though you do care about things. Don't say much and just absorb. When you leave then you can share feedback directed at the why you left which may or may not align with what they want you to do or not do. Worst case you gain info about the next few weeks or months there. You can add that to your resume as you leave.

Here's a generally good piece of advice to fit this situation: if you aren't ready yet to give your notice that you are leaving, then behave as if you are staying. It suits you better to finish strong than to be a someone "dialling it in" until they leave - for whatever reason. Even if it's a workplace where you were not treated well, you look like the bigger person if you participate in everything right to your last day. Good luck!
