When listening to the news, I am constantly bombarded by announcements that the days of lifetime employment are long gone. I disagree, however, as I feel it is still realistic for a person to expect to work at the same company for his or her entire life.
Many companies remain in business for decades, so it is possible for people to keep the same employer for as long as they work. Just because a person can change jobs does not mean that the person will. My father works at a large, multinational, corporation. He got the job after graduating from college and has remained there for almost twenty years. Many of his colleagues are the same. His company is well-managed and in no danger of going bankrupt. So, if he wants, he will never have to change companies. For many people, lifetime employment is still a distinct possibility.
When a person stays at the same company for many years, it is possible to get promoted to higher positions. There are countless examples of people starting in the mailroom and winding up as the company president. I recently read about one of these incidents in a magazine. Apparently, one man had worked at his company for almost forty years. He had stayed there since he knew he could get promoted by working hard and doing a good job. That is exactly what happened. People who stay at one workplace can guarantee themselves continued success.
Some people remain loyal to their employer so will refuse to leave even if better opportunities present themselves. Nowadays, some people constantly switch jobs, but others prefer to maintain their current employment no matter what job offers they may receive. Over the years, my father has received offers to work at other companies. In some cases, he would have received a higher salary. However, he felt a sense of loyalty to his company, his boss, and the other employees, so he has not changed jobs. Being loyal will enable people to have lifetime employment at the same company.
In conclusion,I believe it is possible for people to attain lifetime employment at a company because companies are staying in business for decades, people can rise to high positions at their companies, and workers feel loyal to their employers. While not everyone is interested in lifetime employment, it is available for those who desire.
