Edit: when you reach 2 years sa company, start looking for new ones. And relatively safer mg company hop during your early 20s. Not applicable sa lahat ng panahon though and may vary sa kung anong field mo.

@jtcarrieres agree on this, 2 years tinatagal ko sa isang company the lilipat ako, request ng 25-50% more ng salary, after 5 jobs naka 6 digit na ko

@johnny777 Kumusta naman yung career development mo? If you don’t mind me asking. I feel left out kasi yung mga peers ko na halos sabay ko magwork, promoted na tapos ako back to square one. Malaki sahod pero di pa din napromote. 2nd company now.

@resjudicata in all seriousness hindi masyado nag improve career development ko, i guess eto ung trade off nya, syempre ang ipo-promote ng company ay ung may tenure na minaster na ung process ng company, pero kasi ung skill na un useful lang din dun, wala naman un silbi sa ibang company unless similar process, sa totoo lang nakaka inggit na makita silang maging senior at ikaw napako sa mid level or junior kasi nasa ibang company ka, pero pag lipat mo ulit sa 3rd job mo hindi mo na un iisipin, malaki pera mo less responsibilities pa, mag settle ka na lang sa 4th or 5th kung saan may malaki ka ng sahod at dun mo akyatin ung corporate ladder
