That's most places, FAANGs notwithstanding. 6 months getting up to speed, realizing what a clusterfuck it is by 12 months, dealing with it to 18 months, and then getting to the I-Want-Out point at 24+ months.
Plus the whole "jump ship every 2-3 years to maximize salary" thing is possible for FAANG-level engineers.
