That's fine you can get left out.
When you turn on cameras you allow for body language, facial reactions...when you leave it off youre a strange voice with no context.

There is an entire work force starting remotely.
Surely, as a strategist you understand the importance of human connection.
Good luck building rapport and standing out
Pretty sure I’m good. All and all you’re just another brick in the wall.

Ok.
Nah, I pick and choose. Do I know the team well? No video. First time meeting? No video (let's eliminate unconscious bias, shall we?). Meetings thereafter? Sure. But forcing people to video all the time is absurd. I might be breastfeeding my child and don't want to broadcast it. Or maybe my AC broke and I'm not rocking office friendly looks. Point being, it's a choice to be used wisely.
This isn’t what you said. You said you were joining zero video calls except client calls. Very different to sitting the odd one out.
This is a very silly take, and will hurt you in the long run.
It depends on where you work. Where I work, it would definitely be an issue bc we vc all the time and it’s how we build rapport. Being a voice gets the job done but it’s weird when everyone is on VC and you’re not. Maybe where you work you can get away with it but even our c suite always uses video.
Did not expect this to get so much hate... I think it’s fine 🤷🏽♀️ lots of rapport can happen without video. If you get canned surely other factors are at play...
OP... I feel you, but as the others have said, it won’t bode well for you. At least know you are not the only one who hates it video calls
Don’t care
This decision reflects on you poorly.
Ok. Maybe report back in 6 months on whether or not you still have a job?
Seems like an odd choice to act so insolent and not cooperate with basic team standards during you know...a global pandemic where jobs are being decimated
