Let’s talk about how things are after changing jobs

I was in the process of changing jobs, as I had just completed 5 years at my current position. The direct reason is that after over a year, with more than 3,000 days having passed, one still has to pay over 2,000 yuan in mortgage payments each month, which creates a lot of stress ； As for the indirect reasons, one is the genuine belief that there is no room for growth, and the other is to improve one’s skills through job opportunities after making a career change. Before making the move, I had several discussions with my new employer over a period of more than a month; it was a mutual selection process, which allowed me to get to know them fairly well, as well as to have my own opinions on the company’s development direction and current challenges. I have been working for my new employer for almost half a year now; I have been giving my best in my work, making significant progress, and gaining broader insights than before. But I always feel like something is missing; as a driving engineer, the career path isn’t clear.:) Dear sea friends, feel free to share your plans; we can learn from each other: handshake.
The money in one’s hands isn’t necessarily one’s own; it only becomes one’s once it’s spent. Development is relative; income is what truly matters.
Personally, I feel that once one leaves the job obtained after graduating from university, one is left adrift, and it’s not easy to again feel such a strong sense of belonging
It seems like driving engineers are kind of versatile; what can they do after just five years of work?
I have worked for five years, changing jobs twice and working with three different sets of equipment. . . . There’s only sighs – promotion? There’s basically no change. . .
There is too much to know; I’m not at that level yet. Of course, I made that clear during the interview as well
Promotion is practically impossible at the moment, but one still needs to have such aspirations and take action; otherwise, one will just waste time day after day
I have been working for 4 years and 4 months, and I just resigned to join a new company. The relationship with the second team is good; we have been in contact for two and a half years. In my opinion, the reasons for quitting are low income and lack of opportunities for career development. It’s hard to say if there is or not. . . It’s the income. Revenue. . . But what to do? It doesn’t seem like waiting two years at a time is either a viable solution
It drifts from place to place, from Tianjin to Beijing, then back from Beijing to Tianjin; now it is drifting back from Tianjin to Beijing again. . . It’s really frustrating
After graduating, I worked in a machinery factory for 6 years, starting as an assembly fitter and progressing to a process technician; I tried out all the different roles available in the factory’s workshop. After two years as a technician, I resigned – why? Because the salary wasn’t satisfactory and there was no further room for career advancement. Coincidentally, one supplier knew that I was thinking about quitting and asked if I would like to work for him. I agreed without hesitation, then resigned. The uncertain risks associated with sales are a good fit for me; the income is better than that in a factory, and there’s more pressure as well, but I like this sense of freedom
