In my experience, this varies a lot between work places and departments/teams. I’ve experienced what you describe, and it correlates with shorter em0loyment durations and loads of people “moving through”. People don’t want to bother with forming bonds when they don’t know if the person will be there in a week.
And then there’s the complete opposite: A few coworkers and I have changed employers a few times, but in the same industry, and we’ve always been part of the team “field crew”. While we generally don’t care about the rest of the company and its office personnel, we always had fun when meeting somewhere around the world. While the amount of beer filed on the expenses as “department meeting” is enough to drown a flock of horses, we often do other things together, like museums, shopping, and sight seeing. Hell, we were supposed to go parachuting together once, but timing and weather intervened. The nature of this job makes it hard to maintain “normal” friendships, so we kind of have to rely on each other for that social interaction fix.
