Meanwhile, I've been at the same company for longer than a couple of my coworkers have been alive (though I've changed jobs twice in that time) so "only five years" sounds comparatively short to me.

My wife has been at her current company (large like freescale, flexctronics, jabil) for 8 solid years , and she is still going strong.

Meanwhile I've been at 4 startups, from seed to Series B . I just get bored so easy.. after 3 or so years I NEED a change. Or maybe is because startups dont care about w/l balance and drain you until you quit.

This is not a hot take - genuinely curious as someone who had been at a few startups: do you think the fintech side of startups embodies the burn and churn strategy moreso than other sectors?
So you never stick around to see your production code?
