In this episode of the HVAC Road Show, we’re talking about something a lot of technicians think about — but don’t always talk about openly: when it’s time to move on from a company.

Leaving a shop isn’t just about money. Sometimes it’s about growth. Sometimes it’s about culture. Sometimes it’s about leadership, opportunity, or simply realizing you’ve outgrown your current environment.

We break down some of the most common factors that push technicians and home service professionals to make a change, including:

- Lack of advancement opportunities

- Poor leadership or communication

- Pay structure and compensation ceilings

- Burnout and workload imbalance

- Misaligned values and company culture

- Wanting more responsibility or ownership

- Personal growth beyond the professional world

We’ll also talk about how to leave the right way — with integrity, professionalism, and your reputation intact — because in this industry, your name matters.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, considering a move, or just evaluating where you stand in your career, this episode will help you reflect on what you really want out of your next chapter.

Sometimes moving on isn’t quitting — it’s leveling up. 💪
