Thoughts on requesting to change accounts? I work across 2 lines of biz, and one group that I interface with is particularly dysfunctional. I’ve put in almost a year, fair game to ask for a change?

I think it’s fair to ask for a change but don’t say it’s because team is dysfunctional. Give them a reason that is more compelling to your career growth like I want to work on a client in a diff industry, or want to work on a digitally focused campaign etc

I suggest leaving instead. An internal transfer can take months and they likely won’t give you a pay bump. Plus, you can avoid those awkward run ins in the elevators with your previous teams
