It comes in waves. I transferred to a new group at beginning of COVID and just had to realize there are projects/weeks where I get less attention and coaching working due to the remote environment and being new to the group. My managers have been great though about realizing it's taking a little bit longer than expected to ramp up due to this.

Raise it up and/or think about leaving. I've lucked out and pretty much always had great managers and Partners to help me develop in my career. Without that support I would've left big4 years ago
