A client I’m on is dragging and I have another busy season I’m starting for a client that’s also filing next week.p. So I have two filings the same week as a senior, and the team on the first has completely rolled off. The client just provided new and final FS on Friday afternoon. What should I do?

Not sure if I’m having an existential crisis or if I just don’t like my project/team. Probably both. I just don’t think I can handle doing this everyday. How long to stay at a firm before leaving/making yourself look bad? I dunno how much more of this I can do
