I work with a group that does not always include me in meetings and events.
I've been in this group for almost 5 years now and finally another manager asked why I wasn't included. Knowing this individual well enough I said, "I do the work and go home".
We have a team chat and they talk about things that I'm not included in. To be honest, I probably wouldn't attend anyways it's just the principle. Makes me not want to come to work. And I enjoy my work it's just the people I work with make it miserable. And I've mentioned it several times to my manager via my self appraisal. And I've tried to be more active in the team chat but for some reason they never acknowledge me.
I'm currently looking for another position, just not sure if I want to stay with the company or move elsewhere.
I do my job well and am always getting great feedback and praises. My yearly and semi yearly job reviews are great as well. The problem lies in the fact that I don't have the same title as the others in my department. I fall below them and sometimes they let it be known.
Anyone else experience this kind of work atmosphere? I feel for you if you have but would love to know how you handled it.
