I recently quit.
- Growth
- Culture
- Fomo of new stuff happening
- Pay disparity
I could have earned quite well if i stayed a year or two more. But decided to call it quits. People were shocked. But I do care about my mental health, and don't want to work for an org which I don't relate to anymore.
Ya essentially it looks like it’s not just one factor. Maybe for early career folks its more about money but looking for more reasons
It took me almost 6 months to quit. Especially when I was core to many departments. I exited in a way there was no breakage.
A few reasons I would have stayed back
I was building a great team. Hard to leave them, wanted the best for them. Money for sure. But this will come back Respect, I could have literally done nothing in the org for a long time and still got by. But I couldn't pull myself to work there anymore.
Boredom. While we do get a lot of high setting up processes and hustling but eventually things do get transactional. There isnt rocket science involved anymore :(
When growth saturates (pt 4) it inevitably leads to politics and sometime a toxic environment (pt 3). Thats the right time to quit
