I felt lost after working for half a year
Thread Content
After working for half a year, I feel quite lost. My salary is less than 3,000, and there are no other benefits offered by the company; I feel trapped here and don’t manage to learn anything. So I want to change jobs. But I really like this city; I plan to talk to my supervisor about it, but I don’t know how to put it together. Sigh!
It is recommended that LZ first analyze carefully whether the problem lies with them personally or with the company, and identify what has changed from what they thought when they first started working there. Only after that should they talk to their supervisor; acting too hastily might result in the supervisor having a negative opinion
I’m still working hard at 1,200 per month, yet you’re already feeling lost with 3,000
It’s only been half a year; I’m not even considered to have entered the field yet. I still haven’t had a clear view of the career prospects for this industry or this position. . . It’s best to hurry up and learn* – there’s no need to be confused... P.S. The starting salary is around 3,000, which is fine. . Ask yourself what you can do now, so hurry up and learn something
Let’s see in which city the original poster is located; in second- or third-tier cities, a monthly salary of 3,000 is quite good for someone who has just started working there
Reply to 2# miepo: It’s already been discussed; an answer should come soon
Reply to 4# li1234507: Haha, I had been working for three years by the time I graduated from college; I probably know more than some of the company’s managers. There are problems that I can handle that even the senior engineers might not be able to solve – everyone has their own strengths.
Reply to 6# 7931202: Those are indeed second- and third-tier cities, but there is a big difference in consumption levels between different places; I’m afraid the consumption level here is even higher than that in the prefecture-level cities there
If you can see a bright future and feel that there is potential for growth, then endure more hardship and work hard for a few more years. If you feel that a hero isn’t achieving success, you can decisively change jobs to find your own path.
Half a year is too short; it is recommended to take some time to think things through before conducting another “assessment”.
You have only been working for half a year, while I have worked for 12 years; my salary remains very low. I have tried many different jobs – I’ve worked as a production line worker, a technician, an engineer, and a department manager. I’ve worked in inductor factories, radio factories, and companies that produce computer peripherals. In short, I have done many things. People should always keep moving forward and not stop just because they feel lost.
