At times in my career I have jumped ship...esp when the ship was sinking. But usually it was because I just wanted a change or better opportunity. Move for the right reasons.
Probably 1/2 the time, in retrospect, I think I'd have been better off career path and financially had I stayed thru the "tough" times. Let that be a lesson.. times look tough for any company and every company at some point. Those who stay thru them can often be in a great position simply by the war of attrition / ie whose left to manage -- why you are!
Of course I say only 1/2 the time because for every happy ending there is a story of someone who stayed too long when the writing was on the wall....
Imagine those suckers who stayed at AAPL during the slow years! Or HPQ (ahem) -- sitting pretty on a fortune no doubt!
