Dear Evil HR Lady,
I’ve been with my current company for 10 years .. While I do get good performance reviews they, like all companies, are making changes. I never really know if the changes made will trickle down to the department to which I belong. We sort of have to wait and see… of course that leaves us with sleepless nights and a horrible amount of stress which has made me physically ill. The doctors have prescribed certain supplements for me to take and I go for physical therapy once a month for stress related illnesses.
Should I just quit this job or wait it out? The only reason I’m staying is because I like my “tasks” and it has taken me 10 years to finally get to a salary that will allow me to get out of debt in the next two years. I’ve been scanning the job pages but haven’t found anything in years that equals what I do now.

Very good advice. There are still companies where people stay for a really long time, though. My company is very large, with a lot of departments, and there are quite a few employees that have been there many years. They treat people very well–during the recession, they did not lay off ANYONE. I think I’ll stick around a while. 🙂
