Nobody wants to get stuck in a career rut, and nor is it good be in one. In order to grow and tap your true potential sometimes changing jobs becomes a necessity. If you are still asking yourself the question “Why quit?” The following reasons can show you direction.

10.Seems boring now

“If Sunday doesn’t excite you, change your friends.

If Monday doesn’t excite you, change your job!”

If you have lost all your creative enthusiasm and zeal for work, you should probably consider changing your job to something that would add more value to your life. As they say, “You get one life, why think twice?” It is always better to burn out than to rust out.

9,High Stress Level

Do you often find yourself complaining of backaches and headaches when you reach home? Is your relationship with your family and friends souring? Do you often complain about lack of sleep? If they answer to the above listed questions is yes, it’s time to move on. Your stress levels should affect your relationships with your friends and your family. Your family and health should precede everything else in your life, and your job shouldn’t get in the way. Your job should NOT take a toll on your physical and emotional well being.

8.Bad Reputation

It is often said, that reputation once damaged is irreparable. So if you have done something at work that has tarnished your reputation beyond redemption, let it be anything from badmouthing about your boss to too many leaves, perhaps you should let go while you still have the opportunity. You may not realize it now, but little things can build up and take an ugly form in the future. To save yourself from the embarrassment and humiliation, you should

7.Bad work environment

You don’t get along with your co workers, Nobody seems to acknowledge your presence at work, your social life is non existent. Life cannot get worse. In this situation you have two options in your hand. Bury the hatchet with your colleagues and learn to co exist friendly, or accept the fact that somethings should be left as they are and then Bon Voyage!

6.Degrading performance

At times, you aren’t the only person responsible for your plummeting performance. It can be a combined result of other factors. A company is as likely to affect your performance negatively, as it is to affect it positively. If you feel that your inefficient performance at work is because of your company, you should consider the decision of changing your job. Hopefully your new company will be able to tap your potential and bring your talent to the fore.

5.On a sinking ship

It has been quite some time since you received your past pay and there is little probability that you will receive it soon. Your company is in a financial crisis and continuing your job no matter how much you love it, would do no good for you. No matter what is Goodwill was in the past, it certainly would not continue to be so in the future.The bad reputation of your company can have a detrimental effect on your profile too, so choose wisely!

4.Better job prospects

Growth and satiety rarely go together. No matter how flexible your current job environment might be, if another company is offering you a better pay and a higher position why not consider moving out? After all, opportunity knocks your door only once, so it is always better to grab it and exploit it rather than mourning over a missed one for the rest of your life. Lucrative job opportunities are always worth a consideration, atleast.

3.No Possibility of Growth

Yes, you did get promoted. But that was around five years back. If you aim to move up the corporate ladder and scale new heights, promotion will enable you to have more pay and more responsibility. If you see little or no possibility of a promotion any time soon, there is no point of sticking up to something that will not give much returns in future. Who knows your new job can get you you to the places your old job didn’t!

2.Low salary

It is true that money is not everything, but it forms a major part of our lives. Your salary should be able to give you a reasonable standard of living and thus money is a major motivator to work better. Post recession, employee salary has been a major issue but things have certainly got better since then. One should always find a company that would pay you what you are worth.

1.Priorities, redefined

What is a promotion worth when you have no time to devote to your family? Gone are the times when women were expected to stay home and men went to work. Women today are working at par with men in all fields. But if recently you got married or had kids and your priorities have been redefined, you should probably look for a job that will enable you to enjoy little pleasures of life.Most employers are flexible in this area, but if your’s isn’t, you should understand that now your priorities have been redefined.
