How often are people genuinely leaving companies because they think it's a great environment but it's just not for them? How often? 80%? 50%? 1%? (I'm guessing closer to 1% than 50%)

When hiring, I really strive to figure out what makes my positions special and then find people that are a good fit for what I can offer rather than trying to find some platonic ideal "best" candidate. So for me, other than a toxic situation, I'm very happy pulling people into a role at a company I'm leaving.

But at this point in my career I'm likely much more deliberate than average about making sure a role is giving me what I need as well as more deliberate than most managers about trying to find good all-dimension fits for my positions.

I guess I am in the 1%. My company has a great environment but the pay is much lower than FAANG. So I both am applying elsewhere but can also recommend it.
