It's a good question and probably depends more on your personal circumstances than the job. I have often felt like leaving when I didn't agree with some core aspect of my org (product, culture) but I try to be pragmatic and accept that I am paid to be there and although globally I want to do something more fulfilling, it is better to lo cally tough it out and wait until I'm well positioned to make the next move. So maybe one thought is to ask yourself what is missing for you to be able to make a move, and try and work on that.

Incidentally, at my last job, I realized that what I was lacking to land the next job I wanted was also what I was lacking to be successful in my then current job. In the end I made progress towards remedying that, moved to a new job but also left on a high note as a result of my personal improvement.
