Work-style
So I am going on a year and a half at Informatica and I do have to say, I am pretty happy…and I wonder why. Looking at my track record I spend less than years in any position. Moreover, in the past, I would have start considering how to move on by now for one reason or another. But again, I am as pleased as punch with my current position and the work I have been doing for the last year.
With that said, I would like to call out reason for leaving and staying in a position or company.
LEAVING
- Company – Reading the writing on the wall should be one of the tools any designer has in their ‘bag’. Having ridden the tsunami created by the dot com pop, I have left companies where the people where imploding. Having been part of more companies / business units that where is start up mode, I have seen these groups tear themselves apart via infighting.
- Co-workers – Being in a teams has its advantages aand disadvantage
STAYING
- Great location – currently, the location where I work is absolutely beautiful
- Interesting work – being an industrial designer, my interest tend to wain as the time goes on if the work does not change.
- No other job to be had – one of the best reasons to be in valley…options
