It really depends, you have to weigh it against your own goals and personal growth.
Some people will leave for more money, others leave to learn something new or to simply grow, some will leave for better leadership and mentoring, others for a more fun project.
There are many more reasons, I’ve probably moved on for some if not all of them.
To be honest, I’ve been developing for nearly 12 years, I’ve grown into a few leadership roles, been in a number of interesting projects, yet I’m yet to stay at a company for 3 years, closets I’ve made it was 2y11m. That one I left as they cancelled the project I worked on and I was not moving back to decade old tech.
That being said, I was looking to leave that one too, even being in charge of 3 teams comprising of 13 other developers, I had learned all I could from that job as far as my personal goals went, I had almost left 6 months prior.
I’ve been at my current job for 13 months today and I resigned 2 weeks ago, and it was both for money, growth opportunity and the ability to work on a project that not only solves a real world problem, but one that will actually impact me personally.
