Don’t worry, you’ll eventually settle, my personal advice would be never get too comfortable at one place. I myself stayed a decade with Tcs and moved out recently to CTS, am feeling the same too, but sometimes we need to get out of the comfort zone and push us to grow

I am also moving out from TCS after working for 9 Years and will be joining CTS. How's your experience and anything specific I should be prepared for before I join?

Even I am going to move out of my current organization after working for 5 years where i joined as a fresher. Got frustrated due to variety of reasons. But yet I was nervous at the thought of switching.

I am finally in my last week of notice period got my offers in hand and also negotiated for a higher package today. More than anything I feel confident with each passing day. Definitely there is anxiety, but how I am thinking about this is that, in the new organization no one knows you, no judgements (you are not considered as a baccha(fresher) as you are a lateral here), you can start fresh. New projects, new domain, new people, all I have to do is give my best. And the 100% salary hike is a motivation factor. I am not thinking about WLB, because initially it won't be...And its a compensation of all the useless years i have spent in my current organization. After few months its going to be all fine.

And at the max what will happen, they will fire you, but that doesn't mean you cannot get another opportunity, market is really good currently. Within a month definitely we can get an offer in hand. So don't worry about fire and stuff. Just grab the opportunity.
