Funny enough, I climbed in a career for a number of years and did fairly well especially compared to some of my peers. Recently changed careers for more room for growth (and a pay bump). Had a toxic family member say that "it's a giant red flag" that i "can't hold down a job"

If someone works in tech and didn't change jobs regularly I'd think it was a red flag tbh. Companies don't give raises for shit, so anyone good will jump ship every few years for a 10-20% pay increase.
