Companies don't value loyalty as much anymore. I jumped from job to job early in my career before opening my own business and working for myself. By far the best thing I had ever done, yes more stress, but being your own boss is awesome.

Things were much better when we were kids, thee eighties were an awesome time to be a kid. I don't even recognize my country anymore, it's changed so much... Sorry, got off point there, senility kicking in!

I think its' admirable that you've stayed so long with them, I never stayed with a company very long until I owned it.
