Plenty of signals. Below average performance ratings, good work not appreciated, not talking to me to name a few. They haven't told anything about the performance.

Thanks for the advice

Thanks for the advice

Thanks. Not considering talking with the manager. Because I think he himself is being managed out.

Good point.

Thanks for the advice. Yes focusing on the big picture makes sense.

Thanks for the advice. I dont think it will be of any help here. Because my guess is that my manager himself is being managed out. I did think of talking to a few other people in the leadership position. But none of them are transparent.

Thanks for the advice. I don't think I have the talent to start my own product. (Although I am well versed with most of the latest tech). I think I have a runaway of several years if I were to quit. That gives some comfort though.

Thanks for the advice. Yes I have a very good reputation across the groups. Even those playing the politics are aware of it. I don't want to burn it.

Thanks for the advice.

I didn't mean that. Two things. 1. That actually rules out some of my peers playing politics. 2. There is something happening across the board. Thats what I meant.

Thanks. You are right.

Thanks for the advice

Thanks for the advice. Makes sense. Since I am the subject market expert in some areas, it helps to some extent.

Thanks for the advice. I go the extra mile since I am passionate.

Interesting points. Thanks for the tips. Worth implementing them.

Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the advice. Makes sense.

Thanks for the advice

Thanks. I already answered in the other post. At this point, I am focusing more on learning skills.

Thanks for the advice.

Thanks a lot for the good advice. Yes I know they are not transparent which hurts more.

Thanks for the very good input. Severance package is not the reason why I am still here. From what I hear/read, these days its more or less the same everywhere.( Grass is not greener). Whereas, I can keep learning new things (on my own) at my current place since the expectation is low. You are right. The company is not making fresh investments in the product since it is sort of a legacy product now. The domain knowledge is very valuable. I cant name the competition here. But the work culture is worse there. My goal of doing bare minimum is to teach them a lesson ( They may not care though). I don't think they are doing in the company's best interest. It's pure politics.

Thanks. Yah thats right. That was exactly my point.

Thanks a lot for the kind words. Sure. I will do try that out.

I get your point. I still am honest. But they have taken me for granted for way too long. Hence I am contemplating doing the bare minimum. ( I dont see anything wrong with this either since good work is anyway not appreciated. Those who are rewarded aren't doing anything great either. Majority of them are are well connected with the key people in management)

Thanks a ton. Very useful. I did think about such rules. (for example work 9 to 5 etc). But it's difficult to implement since I think a lot about the work even after knowing I am not valued. (I bring a lot of value to the table. They do know. But they are playing the politics). Good point on what 'worst' peers are doing. Most of them have quit/asked to quit/moved to different teams. Very few left now to compare to. They make a lot of noise all the time and fooling the incompetent management. I still haven't started searching for job because 1) Work life balance is good here 2) I hate interview focussed learning. I am more interested in broader technology/problem statement/solution based learning.

May be slightly different. I don't think one is pushed out in the so called "quite quitting".
