When folks would atten a meeting, the Operations Senior Manager would always ask every few minutes if the meeting was over. Making loud huffing noises. At one point, he found out I was going to present what I was doing in one of this meetings (I was invited by Director (his boss) to attend). He said "Who the frick invited you....I hate when people just change my meetings" and he proceeded to punch a hole in my cube wall.

So I finally I was finally able to get 5 minutes with the Senior architect to ask him about tolerance for large amounts of custom code we would need to apply to a stock product. He did not seem interested in what I had to say and his body language was one of disgust.
I work in IT and have never seen this behavior from adults. Does the person who funded your project know about this behavior?

I have brought it up to my the client manager but nothing has been done. I don't think she wants to make noise since I'm still delivering on the project.
I have also spoken to the contracting company I am working for and they basically said to keep quiet and to not rock the boat.
From what I gather, the Director, Senior Manager, my manager, and the Senior Architect have worked together for years so a protective clique so to speak.
What is funny is that I looked up employee reviews on glassdoor and most of them noted how it was at this particular company. I thought it was disgruntled employees since the company just went through a major reorg and laid a bunch of people off. But now I see the statements on glassdoor were true and with merit.
