You should have an positive enough relationship with your engagement manager to have a frank discussion about potential transfers or rolling off.

It depends on what you want ultimately. What do you value more — Diversifying your project experience / doing something new? Vs. taking on additional responsibilities quicker to make an early promo case? Staying on one project longer often allows you do the latter

like

Answer should be yes.

Get out

K1 why?

K1 sorry, I thought you meant my answer to my EM about wanting to continue should be yes. Gotcha 😅

Get a new experience

I’ve found staying pays off for promo. Since you more effectively own that client relationship

Yes. Blame on your counselor. I have my counseled do it all the time when they don’t wan to be the bad guy

Hi, I have an offer with Horizontal Integration, client is Target, but Horizontal's payroll.

Is it good to accept this offer? I'm considering WLB and job security.

Deadlines can induce anxiety attacks for me. I worked through the weekend and just woke up to a (nice!) email from the client asking about progress. We're not going to hit deadline. This caused an all-out anxiety attack at 6:30 am and now I have to somehow get myself together and work.

How can I have a healthy relationship with deadlines? That "good and done is better than perfect" saying is nice, but expectations are very high. I just want to stop feeling this way. Therapy helps, kind of.
