After how many years of employment does someone typically leave the company?

The length of tenure that an employee spends with a company varies depending on individual circumstances and the nature of the job. Generally, though, research suggests that most employees stay with their employers for around three to five years before departing for a new company or career path. This finding is supported by data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) which shows that in 2020, individuals who were employed full-time typically remained at their jobs for 4.4 years on average (U.S Department of Labor 2021).
