When you changed jobs most recently, why did you leave your last job?

In saw this exact poll on a certain Liz Ryan (@humanworkplace) on LinkedIn/Twitter ( https://twitter.com/humanworkplace/status/1216147277024153600?s=20), and I believe that the results are very much biased to the non-representative population reached by the poll (her followers). Given that most of the tech career posts I see on Blind are very much salary oriented I wondered how the same poll would fare here. Help me validate or disprove it!

I had to use the exact same poll! At least there's the "other" option :)

This is not a joke: I unfollowed Liz Ryan on LinkedIn and her posts were still showing up since my network was liking them .... So I had to unfollow them too ... I think her posts are openly wrong/misleading/ridiculously very often ... They are meant for people to react, not for people to learn.

That's exactly why I'm doing this! Her posts may be inspirational to many, but sometime it all feels click-baitey

I think her posts are spam ... There are so many of those bs influencer on LinkedIn. ...
