You may have heard of ‘The Great Resignation’ — the economic movement which describes the elevated rate at which workers have quit their jobs starting in the post-pandemic era, in particular, 2021. While the rate of resignation locally
may not have been as high as those experienced in North America or Europe, many professionals at the higher end of the pay scale have opted to quit full time employment to focus on building their dream as well as to spend time with family.
Of course, many of us are still contemplating. Questions such as; Is my current job worth it? How will I navigate the financial demands of part-time or no
employment?; and, is now the right time to pursue my dream?, linger.
Regardless of the reason, the decision to leave a job is a tough one. We spend a significant number of hours per week on the job, building friendships and camaraderie and in some cases, relationships which lead to marriage and family.
Nevertheless, if you are contemplating, here are seventeen reasons why you should leave your current job:
Better compensation – Especially in today’s economy when inflation is high
and the cost of living more often than not exceeds compensation, a better salary package is always a good move. Leverage your skills, experiences and education to land a better job with better wages and benefits.
Career growth opportunities –
Sometimes money is not all. There are those among us who desire more meaningful employment that engrosses them fully into their career. Career advancement and growth are paramount to them. These are the persons who create impact. They live to see their work on the big stage.
