Currently just started on an engagement (Day 2) and I immediately feel unaligned to the work and do not feel driven or the passion as it does not align with my aspirations and growth expectations as a consultant. I have been on multiple projects prior to this one and this is the first time I've felt this way. Is it alright to ask for a switch to another project or is it too late since I have already accepted it. Still have at least 2 months to go.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
