you're meant to move jobs every few years, you can keep employees a few years longer with stock incentives or yearly raises but if there's no financial advantage to staying, why would I? Like if it's better in every single way to move, why stay?
I mean if you have a super nice working environment (team etc.), I don't see an issue with staying at the company.
But yeah as you say, if the new company is better in every single way, of course you should move.
Management: Doesn't matter, the competition is just as shitty to work for as we are. sips coffee
Until the competition isn't as shitty and doubles the salary ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Super misleading title, I'm in a job where I couldn't imagine finding something better, but I'm also open to new offers. I think almost everyone is

What do you mean? Not being open to new opportunities is only harming yourself.
Being open to new opportunities and being dissatisfied with you job are different things. I've mainly meant that these statistics are biased. Hypothesis is that people not interested in doing their work hang out on SO instead, as a result a lot of people hanging out on SO are "considering a career move".
There are people who hang out on StackOverflow?
I thought this was about leaving the field. as a senior majoring in CS I'm starting to feel like Tony Soprano.
Change company is the only way to keep up with inflation.
