It is a pleasure - It has been a pleasure

Question

Hello. Does "it has been a pleasure working with you" suggest that I am not working with that person anymore?

I actually used "has been" instead of "is" to stress that it has been a pleasure of mine SO FAR. I am wondering, though, whether this could imply that we will not be working together any more.

Waiting for your answer, please.

Yes, it suggests that you no longer are working with that person, maybe because one of you is leaving the workplace for another job.

It could imply that — because it does imply that.

Not a good idea unless you actually add 'so far', but adding that makes it look like you don't expect it will continue to be a pleasure.
