In my recent review I was told to follow through on projects/own them, and get my ideas in front of the client. I’m a little confused on how? (cont in comments)

@ACD1 - Yeah, I have - they just keep saying they’ll bring me in on stuff and then don’t have a ton of follow through (it only happens sometimes). Kinda why I’m asking if there’s anything I can do on my end instead of relying on my managers, if that makes sense? Probably not how it should be, but I’m working with what I’ve got!

When I’m constantly being kept out of important communication and my offers to take on some projects have been turned down. Is there any other way I can show leadership skills?

Actually i don't like TL behaviour it's making me uncomfortable.

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
