I have never worked at a company in 13 years that has done a pivot. There are companies out their doing the boring (but still profitable) stuff y'know!
Also I have never worked at a company that expects me to do routine unpaid overtime over the contracted hours. But I have worked in UK/Australia with different culture. UK is best 25 days annual leave + public holidays, and often no expectation to work more than the hours you agreed when you signed up (which is fair enough!).
Ahem yet people leave their cushy programming jobs in the UK!
Main reasons for me are substandard coding practices, low pay, not interesting enough work, major life changes (e.g. moving to another country), company going downhill.
Pro tip: Don't tell the potential employer or recruiter your current salary. Or if you do lie and add 20-30%.
