Are things starting to feel stale at the office? If you’re feeling unfulfilled in your work and daydreaming about different companies, you’re not alone. According to Gallup, 51 percent of currently employed Americans are considering a new job. But before you send in your two weeks’ — or even call a recruiter — you should weigh the downsides of leaving that desk. They may surprise you.

That same Gallup study notes that job-hopping does indeed have its merits: employees can sharpen their skills, be exposed to new opportunities, and expand their network. Then, there’s the fact that job hopping is sometimes the best way to get a higher salary.

So make sure when you’re talking to new potential employers you’re aware of their benefits, not just the change in salary or role.

It Hurts Your Interview Answers

You might not like hearing this, but after you’ve hopped around enough times, employers start to get a little suspicious of your loyalties. Ryan Kahn, founder of The Hired Group, tells Forbes, “When jumping from job to job you are showing future employers that there is a high likelihood that you will do the same to them.”
