    9 months. Was at my previous role (my first job) for just over 3 and a half years. Same industry but different companies.

    5 months, changing jobs was the best thing I'd done in a very long time :)

    After 5 years you get £250 vouchers at my place. After ten years it's £1000!

    At my old work you didn't get anything before 10 years. Even then you just get a badge.

    Coming up to 11 years. Nearly quit a few months ago as my wife leaving me had me reevaluating my life, but I had a change of heart, especially when it became clear another promotion could be on the books in the not-so-distant future.

    Only get goodies for 30 years of service, but then they go all out. Small reception, snazzy expensive watch, an extra month's salary tax free and 500 pounds in meal vouchers to eat out with family and friends. Before that we only get an honorable mention in the staff magazine every 5 years.

    6 months tomorrow!

    My previous job I held for four years and a week, the one before that for just over 1.5 years.
