as soon as you get another job offer.......personally there is no time limit but yes, 5 years is a long time......my relative has been in a company for over 5 years and now he is negotiating his salary based on the new offer. so, you don't have to quit the company.....rokara is what matters.....and of course the position/post. good luck

If you are comfortable and you are in good position then there is no need to leave the present job. If you feel better money and understand only money value then there is no option but joining in new company means new contacts with all working in the same company. If you have educational qualification, proper energy and skill then money is no problem. If you are getting less pay, you can approach the management to increase your pay and accordingly you can stay in the same company. Management always wants to retain the employees at any cost. You must be satisfied with the environment and your reputation in the organisation where you are working presently.

You stay for as long as you are being appreciated, compensated accordingly and like the work. When any of those three things are not being met it is time to start looking.

In most companies you only get a 2 to 5% raise every year. Often by taking your experience to another company you can get a much larger increase from the start.

So if you have plateaud at your present company it might be time to begin to look to see if you could do better elsewhere.

The reply changes according to times. When I wanted to make a change after 12 years stay with my first employer, the HR expert in the new set up pointedly asked me for the reason for change, as according to him, I wasnt the type of person who job-hopped. In my second job, I put in 25 years. But, now times appear to have changed. The argument for frequent job-change is that these people bring newer ideas to the workplace, and the con argument is that they lack commitment and loyalty, and not fit for industries/jobs which have long gestation periods. I have heard and seen that but are you aware that a rolling stone gathers no moss, as per an old English adage. Your freedom to hold a different view than mine is unfettered. I do not want to comment about the ISP provider whose Engineers have deserted in a manner that the service to the clients is being neglected.

You seem to be asking about how much time is enough time to be somewhere before you quit.

In my opinion, it is great to be in a company for as long as you can, even if it means 20+ years. Now, I would be concerned about how long one should stay in the same position. A person with specific ambition might stay 1-3 years before being promoted and may leave after that period if advancement is not evident.

When you quit learning it is time to change. When you are young 2-3 years on every other job at least then try to keep one job for at least 6 years once. You learn more on each job but companies like to see steady work for one company to show you will stay if they offer what you need. Also 401K vesting or stock option vesting requires more years.

spend as much time as you like........if you enjoy your job stay, otherwise seek employment elsewhere. there is no set time you should stay at one job, but jump around 40 times in your life and employers are going to think you have commitment problems
