I've found about 6 months to be the cut off point. I never set that time frame intentionally, and most of my jobs/contracts last much longer, if not for their full term and beyond. However, in bad situations, 6 months happened to be the longest I was able to stand all the negativity.

In one case I left after about 3 months, only b/c I knew right away that my place wasn't in that particular environment, or with that particular team.

If you're asking due to relevant circumstances, what don't you like about the job, and how long have you been there?
