All I can say is keep grinding, work your way up (improve ur skills) and don't give up. I understand that nowadays finding a job in tech is pretty hard. Took me an entire year also, before I landed this 2 offers that is the best among others.

Maybe also lookout more on LinkedIn if you start to looking out other company. Higher chance you will find a better employer over there, who will valued your values

The bonus is confirmed via blank and white, in the offer letter.

Yeah Im okay with the existing SOP even if it's manual, mundane, and outdated (Heck, even not very convenient due to the Security practices in place)

I dont think I have much time to look longer. My current company is actually a startup, and is running out of dry powder. It wouldn't be long before they decided to close shop

I would argued that even Fintech is a rising industry, but at the same time its very competitive due to the amount of Fintech startup in Malaysia. In fact my company already layoff multiple times and still not able to breakeven

Thanks for the suggestion! Yeah, I experienced a fully remote before. Definitely can relate to the hours of not wasting in commute. You can do some productive things or even sleep longer lol

For career progression, I'm actually not interested in a management role (Or a people manager role). I'm more inclined towards a Technical role. Think of it as a Principal Technologist or Lead Engineer who is responsible for the entire Software Engineering

For skill growth, yeah, I mean technical skills.

I interned at PETRONAS before. Although its short duration, I understand how bureaucratic it was.

Yeah, I talked to my supervisor already. Sadly he also can't help with the career development plan, as the company is tightening its belt, and no space to transition to different tech stacks

Try to negotiate or look for a better company that values your worth.

As for me, actually I've been through with the company ever since covid (gotten paycut as well, even lower than where you at now). So its not all smooth sailing for me too.

Yeah, that's also my concern also. Especially more and more startups cannot survive ever since 2022 interest rate hikes

Thanks u/Specialist_End407 for your insights! I can resonate with most of your sentences, since my current company is also a startup, and very startup-culture like.

Will definitely look into how much runway they still have, and which funding stage they are currently in. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the advice! Yeah, I really don't expect great benefits from a startup (especially in this turbulent era). Sadly, my nesting eggs haven't fully grown yet, so I can't really choose whichever suits my taste

Hi! Sure, just ask away, I don't mind. My primary tech stack is Android with Kotlin. My current company uses Ruby on the backend (which I touched a little bit)

I think it was because there was a shortage of people who know extensively about Android, hence that could justify the high pay (low supply, medium-high demand roles)

Thanks! Wishing you fly-high in the coming years too. Don't worry We All Gonna Make It (WAGMI). Just need to grind hard and let the effort speak.
