Some leaders and lately more prone to be female leadership because of the epic amounts of **** the tech industry put them through... tend to be that way. You are either on board and ready to rock or out... period. there is no middle ground.
Even where I work there are initiatives that are demanding more of my time than I have to give them. I'm having to turn a blind eye to some things because these new things from new leadership but bottom line is the environment my team is responsible for is why the company I work for makes money. No ifs, ands or buts. So they just can't take away from that.
So I and my leader are having to speak up and offer time lines that make sense for OUR work involvement in these huge projects. They don't like it because new teams have been assembled for these timelines that don't have the same other commitments that we do. So we have to ride the fence while maintaining what we have and doing these new things as well.
