Any thoughts on hopping jobs every year with better pay + title promotion early in your career?

Early in your career is fine since it’s easier to pick up skills in different areas while you’re more junior. Ideally 1.5-2 years so you’re not burning bridges plus it takes to get adjusted to a new company and role. The higher the corporate ladder you climb, the harder it is to try different things or do lateral moves. I have 14 years work experience and I’m ready to settle down at my current company even though I’ve only been here a year. Compensation and work life balance is great and I get additional week of vacation after 2/5/7 years of service and so forth.

Should be getting promoted every 2.5-3 years. Don’t stagnate in a role!

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
