A 100-year old Brazilian set a record of working 84 years at the same company. He started as a salesman at 16 years old and keeps working.
How about you? What's your longest tenure at the same company?

@daniel_engels I don't have any data to refute or support it but I suspect the vesting schedule of initial stock allocation plays a role in it.
18 years! Well, it was quite a big multinational company, so had the opportunity to be dispatched around in various subsidiaries/countries, but still kept my contract in the mothership for 18 years.
@guillaume_mathieu1 that's impressive. Such long tenures become rare nowadays. Hope your loyalty got rewarded with excellent working conditions and an upward career path!
Haven’t worked at a company yet, but if there was a company I was passionate about and that provided services that I absolutely believed in, I would absolutely be just as loyal.
Launching soon!
I've been working at my current company for ten years (from February 2012). I developed a product called Bravo while working here, and now I am a director of product management in my company.
@qudsia_ali Did you join the company at an early stage as one of the first employees?
That's a commendable record!
I'm in my fourth full-time job. And, the longest I have been in a single company is 3.5 years.
Its been almost 4 years at my current company. During this time period I have worked on multiple products, multiple roles and learned a lot. Its a great experience so far as I am doing the things which I like to do.
12 years and counting, if the spinoff can still be counted as the same company.
4.5 years.
