Should I Quit My Job? Gauge
Score your job situation across satisfaction, pay, manager, growth, and runway to get a green, amber, or red quit readiness verdict.
What this means
This gauge combines job quality, market position, management, career trajectory, and financial position to score your readiness to leave.
Formula used
Quit readiness = (satisfaction + market fit + manager + growth) × 2.5 − raise penalty + offer boost + runway boost
Worked example
Satisfaction 4, market fit 5, manager 3, growth 3, no raise in 18 months, no offer, 2 months runway gives a score around 38/100 — amber, explore options.
Common questions
Does a high score mean I should definitely stay?
No. A high score means the structural signals are positive. There may still be valid personal, ethical, or strategic reasons to leave that this tool cannot see.
Does a low score mean I should quit immediately?
Not necessarily. A low score with no financial runway and no external option is a different situation from the same score with six months of savings and a lead in progress.
Plain-English summary
Enter your scores to find out whether the signals point toward staying, exploring, or leaving.
This section translates the result into a short, direct takeaway rather than leaving the page at a bare number.
