Advice on being singled out as the only female in a male-dominated team (automotive industry). I, a junior analyst, was recently moved to a corner office, getting isolated from my team and the rest of the department. Manager now only invites two other newly hired senior analysts out for lunch/dinner. My position is getting phased out and I’m training other senior analyst to “help” out with my current responsibilities. I sense a layoff coming, already looking for new opportunities but I’m having a hard time coping with the new changes. I feel very lonely at work, having sat away from the rest of everyone I previously interact with in my department. I’m struggling with resentment for my current manager and feel blindsided with the news.
