Early in my career I quickly moved off projects whenever I found myself working for people like you. As a junior, especially when working for large organisations I frankly didn’t give a shit whether I did what was described as “my job”, I was interested in learning as much as possible, working across multiple teams and areas and maximising the value of my output (as opposed to the alignment between my output and a job description or someone barely more senior than me’s idea of what I should be doing). Some managers hated this. Others trusted me, treated me as an equal, and let me propose ideas and take on tasks that nobody even knew/thought were possible and deliver massively outsized value. Those are the ones that made my career. My advice to anyone young and ambitious is that if you find yourself just “concentrating on your tasks” most of the time, get out of there.
