A good place to work would never have to worry about that type of thing.
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect someone you hire to stay for at least a year or two. Jumping around more often than that can be a real problem on your resume. If ONE TIME a job is a bad fit and you leave a few months in, that's one thing, but it's certainly not a good habit to be staying at jobs less than 2-3 years.
