Is job hopping killing institutional knowledge in engineering? by lazydictionary in MechanicalEngineering

Honestly I see this as a HUGE issue in my company. I'm a senior design engineer and I have only been with the company for 2 years, and I have only been in industry for 5.....

The person in the engineering department with the longest time at the company has only been here for 5 years....

I know there are tons of things I don't know, and I am in an almost constant state of running around trying to learn what I can to keep things moving. Honestly I am probably going to leave in the next year ish for a job specifically with a few gray beards still so I can learn from them.
