[quote=Anonymous]OP, I get it. I would have loved to stay at the same employer for 18 years, but that’s hard today. You often have to go out to go up. I’m a lawyer and I went from $200k in house in 2019 to $350k for 2026. Some dumb luck along the way, but it worked out financially. I also have young kids. What sucks is that I am starting all over. Rebuilding reputation, learning systems etc, while having a young family. Not being available for an 8a call reads as not committed, when the real issue is that you’re dropping your kids off at school. The risk you run with that sort of long tenure is that people think you’re not ambitious or not that good. It’s well known that low performers and toxic personalities (not saying you’re either) tend to have long tenures because once they find a place that tolerates their BS, they hold on tight. Strong performers tend to leave bad employers. So prepared to address that. [/quote]
