client wants me back onsite very soon but I have to manage their expectations since my spouse has asthma. Should I tell the client directly that I am unable to come in or should I convey this to my team lead on the consulting side?

Team lead on consulting side first

Also look at the seniority of the person asking you to be on client site. If theyre not program sponsor and a one-down, you get a lot more runway to fight this out. Internal lead, client 1-down,then internal partner, then program sponsor.

I'd prefer to use the spouse reason internally and specially with the partner, after you've established that someone needs to travel, so that partner can find a replacement.

This post is an alert message for anyone joining the Johnson & Johnson EMEA account for SAP & had Rakesh Sharma for their Manager round.

He is nothing less than a con man & will promise you a lot to make you join the account. After that he will put you in testing projects. If you ask for a release, he will either not release you or release with a very bad rating and influence other project managers to not take you into their projects.

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.
