MY THOUGHTS ARE MY OWN
Could you please elaborate on that? How long is not long enough? And why wasn’t it long enough? Did you miss out on compensations because of leaving too early? Why wasn’t the better paying job a good choice? And how do you mean big companies are different? Why should we pursue them early in our careers?

When you're at a company where the assignments are challenging and people respect you, you need to stay there. I know sometimes promotions can take awhile but in the long run staying will pay off.
That being said, you should be able to pretty much tell what your future is at any place after 3 years. I would at least stay somewhere 3 years unless the place is just toxic.
Didn't stay long enough at a good company. Chased money.
Didn't pursue jobs at big product companies earlier in my career. They are different.

Great question.

Noted, thanks!
