Different mindset

When I was working in Non IT sector one of my team lead gave me the opportunity to move forward and when I choose the other field in 2025 the manager was like you are only working for this project you must not talk to other Team members and you must not go to HR without my permission and for each and everything we must write the letter and sign it and give.

And even the higher authority was also like supporting the manager and this people builds ego and dominating behaviour
