At my last job, for the first few years I really thought I might spend the rest of my career there. Household name, I was working on interesting things, I got to travel, I got to contribute to the industry. Then things changed. My boss left, we got a new boss, change of direction, change in the kind of work we were doing. I didn’t have any career growth available, and performance reviews felt arbitrary. So I left. It has been a great decision for me. I’m very happy. Companies change and people change, so the match may not seem great in the future. I hope it works out as you want it to.
