Had my first year end discussion and pml suggested I do not get work because managers do not want to add me to their projects, but would not say why(legal repercussions Im assuming). I know I come off as a strong person but it’s gotten to the point where my chargeability is worse than new hires that just came in. How am I supposed to grow and get better if I don’t get any work? I’ll never be SA w/out the hours. I deliver good work product unless something is new and the task isn’t clear…

Time to move on. You already have a reputation among managers…

As you said, it’s about office politics. You need to work on getting a senior that’s helps you with a manager to get picked by his/her engagements…once there, prove you are better than what they think/speak about you

Oh. Have to be fake. And no matter what they say never give negative feedback. They’ll love you. If it’s hard just don’t meet face to face often. If they ask how things are going “I love it”.

like

We’re you staffed on some projects when you started? How did they go? Did you get feedback? Did you interact with a manager or senior manager much? How busy is your group? Are they busy and still nothing.

Jumping to legal reasons is not good look. People are loathe to give bad feedback - very much could be performance reasons but they did not get specific.

Think you need to work with mentors to be given another chance. Or offer to help or join calls as education without charging code - would be otherwise unassigned. This is probably not within policy but you need to do something to kick start things? Offer to travel or offer or help in other sub service lines.

Have the managers communicated to you how you could improve? Has your pml? Otherwise it seems pretty unfair to not give you the feedback you need to improve

What’s the best option here if partnership is the ultimate goal?
