Important reasons of why people (Specially Oracle DBA) change their job frequently in I.T field. Important factors and reasons behind jumping trend and frequent change job in I.T market.
Today's burning problem and unsolved mystery is that why oracle DBA changes job so frequently. HR people and IT managers are asking and trying to search answer and proper solution for same. Affected people and analysts are trying to get root cause of same problem for taking preventive actions.
IT market is growing day by day in today word. Indeed demands of Oracle DBA will be increasing. New jobs of Oracle DBA are also increasing. So many new companies are developing their business and expanding. Due to increasing demand, new jobs and openings are awaiting for Oracle DBA. In short an opportunity of Oracle DBA is increasing day by day.
Means we can say that market demand of Oracle DBA is increasing. Now a day's Oracle DBA can get job very easily with high pay scale. After getting job how many Oracle DBAs could stick on same job for long time? Answer is unknown. Job has being changed frequently by Oracle DBA. New companies are offering those (to Oracle DBA) very attractive packages. Does it only reason? Or some another reasons?
I investigated this situation and provided some detail analysis and report.
When new joinee (or fresher Oracle DBA) joins company, he is not aware of work environment of company. Senior colleagues are providing him/her some training and after spending some days or months new joinee (Jr.Oracle DBA) set himself or herself in present environment. In short company gives him/her proper time to set themselves in company for proper adjustment with environment.
When this employee (Jr.Oracle DBA) is leaving from same company after spending some times. Company again takes new employee and trains him. This scenario is now general. Now on days this type of scenario is very general. Why this thing happening with every company and with most of employees?
Here you can find out some of reasons for same.
1. For better prospectus employee leaves present company. If you ask him for which reason he joined past company you will get same answer ( kidding!!!!).
2. Present company doesn't pay so much and newer company gives good hike. This is also common reason. Here both are guilty, employee and employer. Because most of cases, present company doesn't take care of employee and doesn't check market rate of them. Due to this reason company fails to provide proper hike. Some of cases after getting good hike candidate leave company for another good hike. In this cases employee's greediness found.
3. Location problem. In this case relocation problem is including. People (Oracle DBAs) are trying set themselves in present location but they are not adjusting themselves. In some of cases, company is transferring them to another location or work area or site, and they are not interested to work in new location or work area or site.
4. Not getting job satisfaction in present company. This scenario is also common. People (or Oracle DBAs) are on bench and not getting any kind of work or allocated any work those (Oracle DBAs) are leaving companies due to this reason.
5. Language problem. This scenario is very rare but same as location problem. Because in this situation people tried to adjust but failed and change company with same problem.
6. Changes are essential. Sometime people become bore after spending long time in same field and environment. Everybody likes change in life. Changer never discloses this reason to anybody. But this can be one of reason for changing job.
7. Getting foreign break in another new company. This is same as reason no.1 and 3.
8. For switching to another work area. This reason is becoming more critical and trend is going high in people. Changes and new technology is being introduced daily. In this situation some people are smarter than other. They learn something new or different than their work area and now they want to work in new domain or work area. Present company doesn't provide chance for same.
As per Dbametrix Solution's investigation, company can take precaution actions or break this trend of changing job.
But when???
Scenario may be change in every employee in every situation. But who bother this? If company or HR Department should analyze properly then it can be stopped.

Sometimes it is not all about the money, but the challenge of the work and a sense of ownership in the project that is tasked to the employee. Many employers are now finding that by giving their employees a "full package" that includes a good level of pay as well as satisfactory working conditions allows them to retain quality people long term.
It is very closer to point no.6 and 8. We can say in other words "job satisfaction". Many people likes challenging role in job they are ready to deliver anything if it contains challenging position.
You are right we can consider this point in this article. Thanks a lot for adding and suggesting.
