Ramai kata kalau nak cepat naik gaji, kena lompat kerja setiap 2-3 tahun. Saya setuju, especially bila tengah bina kerjaya dalam first 5-7 years. Memang akan nampak hasil. Tapi saya nak tanya, adakah gaji akan berhenti naik walaupun kita terus lompat selepas tempoh 5-7 tahun ni? Sebab kalau dah bertukar kerja byk kali, majikan baru mungkin akan fikir kita “job hopper” & pekerja yg "high risk". Jadi, adakah strategi lompat kerja ini berkesan sepanjang kerjaya, atau hanya sesuai waktu awal2 je

one time you akan sampai u punya peak salary value for that kind of experience. That time u akan susah nak dapat kerja baru and risiko susah nak dapat kerja baru if you are retrenched or the company downsizing sbb your value is too high. unless you are willing to accept a lower salary

Ada masa betul, lompat gaji boleh naik gaji dan career growth opportunity tapi based on pandangan company lain lah.

Lepas 5-7 tahun masih lompat, company boleh reject awal-awal. Diorang nak orang steady.

Coming from somebody yg “certified job hopper”, - 8 companies, 7 different industries in a span of 15 years, with avg increase 20% per movement so yes I do speak from experience.
No, it does not stop at 5-7 years. Who told you that number? And no its not early on only.
It will still work…but:
1. Job market is getting worse and worse.
Nowdays not getting anything from 9 months to 2-3 years is normal. Tough.
2. Always have to keep your value more than others, the only way to get ahead. be the 5%

Gaji boleh naik tapi kalau tukar selalu, employer anggap kita job hopper. Memang tak best.

Strategy ni jalan masa fresh grad je. Bila dah lama kerja, asyik lompat je orang nampak pelik.

Awal-awal ok la lompat kerja, tapi lama-lama orang nampak kita tak setia. Susah nak percaya.

Untuk fresh grad jump kerja ni perkara biasa tapi bergantung dekat orang tu. Aku pun jump kerja tapi aku pegang max 1 tahun bergantung dengan apa yang aku buat masatu. Macam last company ada projek agak besar aku join dari mula sampai projek tu stabil & boleh guna, tak lama pun dalam 9 bulan. Lepastu aku jump sebab lepas dah settle deployment aku jadi stagnant dekat situ xde benda yang aku boleh belajar. Alhamdulillah hasil jump dpt naik almost double gaji sblmnya

Buat masa sekarang lompat kerja atau setia pada kerja tu sama, employer masih akan ambil you kerja sbb byk employer kekurangan staff dan bukan you lompat kerja dia tak nak ambil you
