Complaining about the company

As I already said previously, make sure you are careful who you talk to when you are complaining about anything such as the company.

"This is a dead end job. I don't see much of a future here."
"I hate the redundancy. It's so boring."
"Work isn't exciting for me anymore. I am doing the same thing over and over again."

"This company doesn't care about employees that much. I haven't received a fair raise in 3 years."

"I don't know if it is my manager or this company, but I'm really getting sick of my job."

"What do you think about all the politics in this company?"
"The politics suck here. But it is the same for any large corporation. The best way to deal with it is to take advantage of the rules."

I heard in some countries that switching companies is not common. Once you have a decent job in a decent company, the person usually works there all their life. In the States however, changing jobs and changing companies is very common. That makes it a common discussion to have with friends and co-workers.

"I don't know how much longer I can take this job. I've been thinking about applying to a different company."
"Have you ever thought about leaving this company?"
"What company do you want to switch to?"

"I started applying for other jobs. There are a lot of positions open."
"I've been looking for jobs on monster.com. They have a lot of positions available."
