hello

A lateral move in business tends to refer to when an employee moves from one area of work to another without changing pay grade or salary. There are numerous why a lateral move can be helpful to a career, and also reasons why it may thwart someone’s personal business goals. Each person must decide whether a lateral move is appropriate, although some people aren’t given the option. Sometimes when company wide layoffs or restructuring occur people are able to make the leap laterally to a different job, and are simply relieved that they did not lose their job.

Thanks
