While there are many reasons why people stay in jobs that they no longer like, there comes a time when people need to question the value of staying with an employer where they may be over-invested.

If you are experiencing any of the following, you should seriously think about exploring alternative career options:
- Lack of upward mobility.
- Waning support from your manager.
- Offering of "so-called" opportunities that do not align with your career aspirations.
- Biased, unfair or overly critical performance reviews based on hearsay or unsubstantiated allegations.
- Reduced decision-making autonomy.
- Shrinking scope of key accountabilities/responsibilities.
- Lesser qualified and/or experienced co-workers are promoted in advance of you.
- Pay increases or bonuses cease or are not reflective of your performance or the organization's performance.
- Continuing lack of support to deliver on mandates.
- Your "political position" within the organization is demoted.
