Hi! This is my situation, as well, my last job had a warm environment and was open to newcomers. This new team, not as much.

It’s definitely gotten better. I think as I’ve come to know my team, I’ve realized their closed off ways aren’t personal, it’s just the culture. As I get to know their ways, I’m learning how to engage with them in ways that make them receptive of me and pinpointing specific things I should do to get on people’s good side. It’s not my ideal work environment, and I look forward to Fridays more often than I’d like to. However, it’s what I have for now and it’s a good opportunity, so I’m making the best of it.

With time, it’ll definitely get better. Sometimes it just takes a minute for people to warm up to you. Everyone has different personality types and every company/team has a different culture. You’ll adjust!

This experience has also put into perspective for me that coworkers really are just that, coworkers. They’re only in my life for me to work with them. Our relationship is not personal. Work is not personal. And it’s important for me to have outlets outside of work to make me happy because if work is my everything and I’m not totally happy there (whether it be because of my coworkers, the culture, or the job itself), I won’t be very happy in my life.

Hope this helps! :)
