No one with the right mind signs a contract, with some set up about how many years (months) it will last...And no one with the right mind leaves a job just because the time is up!
It depends mostly on the human environment, on the challenges and personal preferences of that time...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

In my previous job I just started out as a developer.
Lots to learn, longer to stay. I lasted four years.
I've been working at my current job for almost two years now and... Well, who is to say I'm going to make four?
How long I will stay at my next job depends on coworkers, salary, company culture, growth possibilities...
I PREFER a job for life though... Self-employed and making millions

For me I've got the perfect mix:
I am employed at a consulting company for over 25 years now, and work at and for different customers, some projects last just a few weeks, others up to several years.

I did that years ago, wasn't for me. Constant long journeys and hotels and I used to find at the end of the day I just wanted to go home after a while.

I've been body shop consulting as of late. That is, I let an agency place me for 6 month contracts. I pick up a new skill at each placement and I take a month off in between contracts and fill any learning gaps with personal projects...or travel out of the country. It's also created a web of contacts/full time offers so that I can return to full time salary if that becomes necessary. So far so good! No more late nights fighting prod fires.

That is OK, do not worry. I did not vote either for same reason. It is not the compulsory vote. I am sure a lot of people are like this

I agree - IMHO this is the most important reason to stay at a job.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
