My last two jobs were two years and one year. I only left the first because I was offered a team lead position working in technologies that I care enough about to run the local meet ups for, and the other I left only because the work I ended up doing was very different from what I was hired to do (ie I ended up doing rather little of the tech I was hired for), if I’d went into it knowing that, I’d have been a lot happier doing it, although I would have stayed in the first job then. Before that, I founded two failed startups one after the other, so those were out of the ordinary jobs. So, recent jobs, not very long, but the reasons I left were not because of noise related lack of focus. I try to be pretty open and direct with my bosses about what my plans or needs are and what I can offer given the environment I’m in.
