Shamaraderie
Portmanteau word
The forced workplace based camaraderie that exists between middle management and her "team"
Typically involves laughter at appallingly weak jokes and bonding exercises in which "Team Leader" and "Team" fantasise over the changes to the workplace they would invoke if the lottery syndicate got lucky.
It is shown to have no basis in friendship when exposed to meaningful scrutiny

When you feel obliged to have a good time in the company of people you'd rather not be around.
Or,
People pretending to be your friends when really all they want is something from you, when they are drunk, or themselves feel obliged due the social situation.
