Should you consider jumping ship?
There are many factors that affect a decision to change jobs. Some of them are: lack of security, not getting along with coworkers, low salaries, no chance for advancement, company doing poorly, layoffs expected or abysmal benefits. Do you fall into one of the categories? Do you have another valid reason for wanting to change jobs?
If so, it may be time to consider looking for a new job. Twenty years ago, if you changed jobs more than every five years, you were considered untrustworthy and you would find it difficult to get hired.

So, if you have been at your current position for a minimum of 12 months, preferably at least 24 months then changing jobs should not impact your reputation or the look of your resume. It could look bad if there's a pattern of staying at jobs for only a year or two, but if it happens occasionally in your work history, it's ok.
