High performers job hop when - They aren't compensated proportionately for their work. - They aren't recognized proportionately for their work. e.g. I have seen solid engineers leave because management thought they were just doing "maintenance" only to have entire product lines go on fire after they left. Turns out, your remaining high performers can get overloaded too. - The culture undervalues that individual's ethos. Some high performers prefer collaboration, others prefer competition. If the work environment cannot suit their ethos, they will leave to find another place where they can thrive better.
