Any suggestions to overcome this

I have become bitter about this corporate work culture. Had some terrible work culture in my last 2 jobs This has affected me a lot.

Joined a new one, though it's good in terms of culture to an extent. I have gotten into the phase of not taking phony talks or fake conversations .

It's getting hard to socialize, all I see is power play, insecurity and selfish motives.

I can't talk to everyone and mostly can't take the fake things. This has increased more as I changed jobs and got older

All they say is communicate more , increase visibility.

Not sure how I will get used to things. It's getting very tough as I gain experience.

I somehow feel this is affecting my growth.

I was in your situation for 3 yrs working on a project where the leadership and seniors were all playing the same game that you described plus it was my first job fresh out of college. I could never reconcile with the superficiality of the job. The first lesson I learnt very early on is not to have permanent feelings on temporary situations. The end of the day we are here for money and sustenance so just treat your job as commodity and be vocal about your work and efforts and just be polite with your colleagues. Also having a work bestie is a life saver, I'm sure there might be someone in the workspace who would be more comfortable try to engage with ppl who you gravitate towards. Also having a work life balance helps in this case.
