When to quit your big tech job - from a big tech hiring manager

If you're considering leaving your current job, here's some things you should think about before you do.

Even if you're NOT thinking about leaving, you should review whether you're still in the right place every year. This is especially true for people at big tech companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, etc. I should know, I spent thirty years at these companies myself, 15 as a principal engineer, 13 as a hiring manager.
