Been in my job for 9 years now. I stick to it because the pay is good, it's not stressful, I don't have someone watching over my shoulder every minute, I get to work from home and be wife and kids, and most importantly it is necessary when you have a family to support -- having money to pay for bills and healthcare insurance.

I like what I do but the bureaucracy leaves much to be desire... and it also burns a lot of people out.

This is strictly from a male perspective, correct? Because we can open a whole different discussion about gender pay gaps.
gender pay gaps don't exist. do your research please.  :idiot2:

Hmmmm let's see... I've been doing this for sooooooooooooo o long now and yes it's a career not a job.   I enjoy working w/ the population I'm serving, work load is manageable/not stressful, got nice office windows w/ sunlight coming through, my own little space where I can listen to music - make the work day relax and peaceful, supervisor don't monitored every step, and pay & benefits are fine.

My motivations for staying with an employer:
* Positive company culture = happy employees
   - Happy employees will feel like they can grow personally/professionally, will feel like they are valued/appreciated for their work, will feel like they can contribute positively to the company
* Flexibility
* Money
* Benefits/other factors

I never lasted more than five years at one company. What are your reasons for staying? Do you really enjoy doing your job? Feeling unmotivated. :( For me, if the pay is lower than $17, the job doesn't really seem professional and stable. Of course, we gotta make a living too. Every time I see other better jobs, it makes me want to leave. Salaries tend to peak around age 40.

Looking back to when I was 16 years old, it appears my history proves that I typically start looking for opportunities to move up within any company around 2.5 years. Depending on the company's way of treating my application and I after applying determined if I stayed or left the company altogether.

Currently where I am at, I do enjoy it most days...some days it can get a bit wild, but my current reasons for staying at my place today:

1) Satisfaction in helping people get into their homes
2) Monthly bonuses
3) Health Insurance
4) 401k
5) The people who I work with and who work for me
