Or OP was doing busy work the whole time, making reports and filling forms no one was ever going to read. Why would you grant equity to someone whom you see skipping team meetings, to someone who doesn't bring actionable results and questions to their peers? "Be active and useful in your work environment" is not even "office politics", it's just basic company life. Getting it brings you rewards, not getting it gets you fired or sidetracked.
