Generally speaking, the major Jewish migrations in history were either to escape some form of Anti-Semitism (such as direct religious persecution or segregation laws) and go to a place where Jews had more freedoms.
In the modern world, where Anti-Semitism is less common than it was historically, Jews migrate across the world for business quite often as well. However, we should note that Anti-Semitism is still a strong motivator for Jewish migration, as can be seen by the rising numbers of Jews fleeing Europe because of increased Anti-Semitism there.
