How do I go about declining the offer to be extended on the same project with the same team of people? Team is nice but i feel that our ways of working differ and I’m interested in different types of projects. Any advice on how to politely decline?

Oof that’s always a tough situation. The best course of action in my opinion is to talk directly with the EP about 4-6 weeks before you’re hoping to transition off - explain that you enjoy the proj and team but you’re looking for X experience instead and hoping to grow your career in that direction. Then, have another project lined up so you’re not rolling off to the bench. Hope this helps!

What is the environment like and has anyone been in a situation where the contract with TCS and the client ended and had trouble with TCS finding them a new role at the same pay?
