I was having a discussion with a peer today and this topic came up - only a couple hours later that I realized that it did.
They say two topics to avoid at work politics and religion. Taking religion out of this discussion lets talk politics - team politics.
Power Struggles. Favoritism and Bias. Toxic Work Environments. 
I wish I had a formula for dealing with or avoiding work politics. I don't. I think I do the next best thing - model what it looks like to work with respect, empathy, and communication. In short - integrity.
We hung up the phone agreeing that work politics suck.
