I'm in a senior role, been back at work 3 days a week for 6 months (was FT prior to mat leave when I delivered a kick-ass, high profile project) but since returning I have been given a 'dead' project that is going nowhere, has zero chance of success and my career is festering away in front of my eyes. I've asked for more work, more challenging assignments, I've even tried killing my projects. Because of the area I'm now working, I no longer need to be in management meetings, meaning I am no longer part of key discussions. The only positive is that it's PT and an ok salary. But it's doing my career no good whatsoever.
Any tips for maintaining a 'profile' within a company despite not achieving anything notable and avoiding being sidelined as a PT worker other than stop reading MN?
