Hi PAM,

Currently caught between my POD & the CST-based project
politics.My POD initially assigned me to the CST project when they had no internal work, but now they want me to transition back to POD projects asap.The CST project (PAM) can't release me until 2025 due to client impact. My POD lead has warned that staying with the CST project could harm my professional growth n urged me to prioritize POD work to avoid career stagnation.

Any advice how to tackle situation?

I don’t understand how everyone is making a blanket suggestion about switching to CST.. just because they want your time. There is such a thing called values and loyalty. If it is so easy to subvert it for you, there is no point blaming the organisation for change in culture and things going wrong with you

Good for the group here. But we know so many are unhappy.

Thank you for the advice. The mirror reflects a confident person who has his values intact which is helping him do well at ZS

Check with the CST team if they would like to take you 100% for upcoming projects. Then make the complete switch, else 50-50 balance it out.

Why aren’t you getting aligned with the CST completely?

Why is this an either or. Offer splitting your time if both are important and define your role according to the time allocated on both work streams
