I managed to meet up with my ex-bosses and ex-colleagues in KL recently when I was there for work.
We were discussing about changing jobs, and my ex-boss said that when you find a good reason to leave your job, it is the right time to go. If there are no push factors, then look for pull factors. Also, the 20-30% salary increment is to ‘compensate’ for the risk undertaken to join a new environment.
I agree with him. After listing down my push factors to leave, he replied that these are no longer push factors, they are actually shove factors.
I came back to Singapore, more determined than ever to leave.
