Anyone staying more than a year is loyal in my book. And plenty stay more than a year.

Which actually illustrates the "no loyalty" point. A year is nothing. Staying that long doesn't demonstrate anything.
But nobody should be "loyal" to companies. Companies are certainly not "loyal" to them. To be clear, when I'm on the clock at a company, I'm all in -- they're paying me to be.
But off the clock, no. And I have no problem leaving a position when it's no longer beneficial to me. And employer-employee relationship is a business deal, nothing more.
