Yeah, Job Hopping is a problem in my area...
Yeah, some of it is our business, but honestly, it takes 5 years to really know what you are doing. We're trying to figure out ways to shorten that, but right now, it's at least 2 or 3 before you have the background.

BUT we have all kinds of people who are PLANNING on just 2 to 3 years and then leaving for something else.

We have a problem INTERNALLY with people Job Hopping internally... so much so they now have it in the contract that you can't apply to anything else internally for at least a year... but the external Job Hopping is killing us.

We have literally thousands of jobs at the company,... and we're hiring like crazy ... but we're losing a ton of people who's career strategy - TAUGHT THEM AT COLLEGE - is to job hop.

We're trying to figure out how to ask that in job interviews!

BUT I know, some places make it work. Evidently SpaceX is like that.... work insanely hard for 2 to 3 years then jump to some support vendor with a little calmer work expectations.
