Yup. It's kinda sad. I went there to avoid that with every intention of focusing on long term. It's why I've put up with it - I believed it would pay off.

Back in 1999 when I had my first "big time" real job, they were discussing the reduction in "loyalty" to employers. At that point, my department head, a 25+ year employee at that time was telling me that they only hoped for 4-7 years out of any given person they hire. It's not news. Loyalty schmoyalty. The only reason to consider loyalty imo is if there's a pension involved - and a good one. Otherwise, a 401(k) rolls over like a good dog and changing employers is often the best way to actually get promoted.

When they killed the pension system for most people in this country in favor of 401(k) plans back in the mid 80's, they killed any reason for loyalty.
Now your employer expects you to jump at better offers, so your only option is to find one willing to pay to keep you....or jump at the better offers.

Nothing sucks about my current job, except that I want more hours... guess everyone says the same thing lol. Or else, the people who do have the hours bitch about how overworked they are.
It's an interesting clinic start-up in the city.

Probably a union shop so they can't promote him just because he is good. They'll give the promotion to someone who gets barely passing reviews who has been there 6 months longer. Union lovers are unanimous in their belief that bosses are incapable of determining who is doing a good job.

You are so clueless it's not funny.
a) I live in a right to work state
b) I work in an industry that has no unions
Both of these are pretty commonly known OP Facts.
