Trending @Cognizant; Is it ok to ask for a release from a project?
I have been in this project for almost 2 years I am literally running the show here with no guidance. If there is an issue (not related to me ) I am held accountable. If I do an exceptional job I don’t get the credit. The SM who escalated about me never gave me a good feedback though I took his feedback professionally and did an exceptional job by taking up responsibility of the deliverables. I am not saying I am perfect but when I showed up and did what was needed I deserve appreciation. I have an H1B my entire credibility got impacted because of this one feedback. I am not getting a position on-site. I am underpaid which is ok for me because my primary goal is to work outside India especially USA (not a cliche). I feel lost in this whole management politics and have been feeling depressed because of constant feeling of not belonging where I am. I had a business before Covid where I was making my salaries equivalent in a day. I lost everything during Covid. I have pulled back myself but now I am not able to hold myself together. I have never felt so hopeless and lost. If I ask for a release it might give an impression that I can’t take the pressure whilst the fact is I don’t see growth. If I don’t I won’t get visibility in TMP. I go to office 3 days a week but can’t network with the right people because they don’t come there. If you meet me you will know what I am capable of, unfortunately I am invisible to my leadership no matter how many appreciations I got after that one bad feedback last year. I am afraid to stay alone as I might commit sucide. So I got a service dog.
