The days of a coming right out of school, landing a job and staying with a company for 25 years are long gone. You have to move around a lot in your career now.
Hmmm, I've been with my company for 18-1/2 years with no reason to look for another job. If you plan properly and find a good job, buy a house near your work and like the area, you'll have no good reason to keep moving around. With a company like NJM, you could make a career out of it easily if you like what you're doing and live close by. Most companies don't like spending money on training people to only have them leave in a year or 2 so don't plan on doing that for long. Companies will see your history of leaving a job in the short term and won't even consider hiring you.
