I recently spoke with my friend who was laid off after 8 years at the same company, and to his surprise, recruiters viewed his long tenure negatively during interviews. In this video, I explain why companies now see extended job tenure (8+ years) as a potential red flag - from skills plateauing to institutional mindset and salary stagnation. I share why 4-6 years might be the ideal timeline to stay at a company before reassessing your position.

This doesn't mean everyone should leave their jobs after 5 years. I outline the exceptions - when your responsibilities are growing, you're handling new functions, getting different assignments, or moving into leadership roles. I provide 5 critical questions to ask yourself annually after your third year at a company to determine if it's time to move on or stay put. Remember, the danger isn't in moving too soon but potentially moving too late in today's rapidly changing job market.
