There is no "rule". Don't be afraid to leave something you're sure isn't going to work out or improve your station (if a better opportunity is available), but don't feel obligated to leave if you're still learning and growing, and salary + title are keeping pace.

80% (probably) of the time, moving on in the 18 - 36 month range makes the most sense, but there are many reasons why it may not when the time comes.

Thanks. Good insights.

Be mindful that jumping ship too quickly doesn't look great in your resume. Some hiring managers get jittery at interviewing someone that has stayed less than 2 years in a role on a regular basis.

1-2 years

Studies show every 2 years at least

I’ve had better luck building my credibility with a company than making leaps and feeling like starting over to get familiarize with new people, process and company but definitely feel like 2-3 years would be good. Not as easy in this current market than it was before though

DE&I is now a core leadership competency. If you are managing diverse talent, it’s important to understand what the term “privilege” means within a DE&I context so you can lead your team to higher levels of inclusivity+develop optimal strategies for solutioning around team issues/challenges. Everyone has some aspect of privilege depending upon the context. Privilege means the absence of obstacles/barriers, not necessarily the presence of perks. Though some would say *that* itself is a perk.

Well, I was the one who broke it off. I couldn’t get him to love me the way I needed or even respect me enough. It’s been 6 weeks of not seeing each other. We messaged this week. He doesn’t get it…. His messages show he still doesn’t know what he wants. Yet, if I am totally honest, I hate how part of me wishes he would do a grand gesture/finally decide to be a better man. It’s delusional. It’s crazy how love can be so rosy, sweet & blinding that the red flags seem surmountable.
