Other than money. What are the reasons you join or stay at company?

People and Culture - specifically colleagues within the sales org and business partners (e.g. product, marketing). Is there a good, collaborative dynamic within the organization?
Personally, I would choose to work for a company with a mediocre product but a company with great people / culture over a company with a great product and mediocre people / culture.

Product pipeline, strong r&d, good bennies (WFH included), no micromanaging and the team communicates/works well together.
Benefits, leadership and upward mobility
Culture and remote/hybrid working option.
What kind of culture do you look for?
Uplifting.
Focus on solutions.
Minimal micromanagement.

What would keep you beyond two years?
Avoiding job hopping on resume too much
People and Product. Good product with vision, People that work towards a common goal and boost each other up
culture and upward mobility
Colleagues and friends. And new challenges.
Companies that hire quirky weirdos
Product, leadership & flexibility.
And money.

Roadmap, personal and professional growth, people/culture, pre-ipo (this falls under money I guess).
I have pretty good dental and a great comfortability with my role/territory haha
1. Culture - if you're happy, you stay.
2. Product - If you have PMF, it's worth staying.
3. Career Advancement - if you can get promoted, stay.

Culture - Hands down. Studies have shown that people are willing to take pay & benefit cuts just to stay at orgs with great culture
Even more than money - People and Culture. Shit I have had so many jobs I can honestly say that beats everything else by a mile. There is nothing better than working in a fun environment, with smart people that have integrity, respect across the board, genuinely nice and transparent executive team and everyone has eyes on the same trophy.
Runner up would be product, seriously selling vaporware is nuts and a product with continuous issues and challenges getting implemented comes with way too many f-ing headaches makes the whole experience not worthwhile.
