Powershell 5.1 if statement result is incorrect - powershell

Question

I'm using Powershell 5.1 in constrained language mode with no access to additional modules.
I've created a script to return information from "net user query (username) /domain" that includes an If statement to return results if the end user I'm checking isn't a member of certain groups.
The If statement doesn't appear to be working correctly and I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.
1.
$enduser = read-host "please enter username"
Net user query $enduser /domain
$u = #{}; net user $enduser /domain | ConvertFrom-String -Delimiter '\s{2,}' -PropertyNames Name,
Value | ForEach-Object { $u[$_.Name] = $_.Value }
$globalgroups = $u_.'global group memberships'
if ($globalgroups) -inotlike '$_.EXAMPLEGROUPNAME'
{
write-output "user is not part of EXAMPLEGROUP"
}
I have also tried
2.
if ($globalgroups) -inotlike '*EXAMPLEGROUPNAME*'
{
write-output "user is not part of EXAMPLEGROUP"
}
3. as well as creating new variables
$EXAMPLEGROUP1 = { $u[$_.'global group memberships'] = $_.'EXAMPLEGROUPNAME' }
$EXAMPLEGROUPtest = { $u[$_.'global group memberships'] = $_.'value' }
and changing the if statement to;
if ($globalgroups) -inotlike '$examplegroup1'
{
write-output "user is not part of EXAMPLEGROUP"
}
the #2 snippet of code appears to work for one specific group which always appears as the first result in global group memberships, however if a different group name is added which appears later in the list of global group memberships, it always returns that the user isn't part of the group, even though I can see it there.
What can I change to make this work?

I am not sure why exaclty you are using Net user query. But as far as i can see, you try to make an If statement to return results if the end user you are checking isn't a member of certain groups in Active Directory.
I would rather than using Net user query do something like this:
$enduser = "TestUser"
$examplesgroupname = "Test-Group"
$groupmembership = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership $enduser
foreach ($membership in $groupmembership.name) {
if ($membership -ne $examplesgroupname) {
$membership_validated = $true
##statement Is true when user is not member of the examplegroup
} else {
$membership_unvalidated = $false
##statement Is false when user is member of the examplegroup
}
}
Write-Host $membership_validated
If you need to use Net user query for a certain reason, than give a short feedback and i will try to fix your script with Net user query included.
