Leaving Friends Behind: What To Consider When You Leave Your Job

You probably won’t work at the same company for your entire life.

Whether you decide to leave on your own or if someone else makes that decision for you, just know that every job is temporary. You will most likely work for many different companies throughout your career, which isn’t a bad thing. As people grow and change they need different opportunities to help fuel their growth for a successful career.

However, leaving a job where you have made friends and have become a part of the community can be challenging. You most likely have spent a lot of time with these people and you have gotten to know each other pretty well. Leaving them behind is difficult. And the thought of having to make new friends and connections as a new job can be daunting.

Here’s what you need to know about leaving your friends behind.
