What's a corporate in-houser to do when marketing brings in outside help, leaving you feeling undermined, disgruntled, and ultimately helpless?

UU, who originally sparked this discussion, is sooo in the zone--the feeling undermined, disgruntled, and helpless zone, that is.

When good in-house work gets upturned noses and cold shoulders instead of praise?
