There are certainly many definitions of “winning”. I can only speak for myself: quitting my old job lowered my pay, but resulted in my being a lot happier and having more time to spend with my kids. If anything, the current trend and the number of people willing to jump jobs has helped people like myself take the leap into something new — something I might not have done without seeing others do.
That’s awesome. I enjoy working for the company I do now, but even with the previous one, only when the company started experiencing issues (like selling off contracts and about 75% of the employees) did I have the guts to move to something else as I wanted to remain in a “steady” job for my daughter.
That is, probably would’ve loved to with the previous place, but didn’t have the confidence to.
