2) ST for $3.8K but 1 year contract. No guarantee of employment after that.
I am thinking that I rather join ST and then find for another job next year. Micron's base offer seems too low and given the OT/high-stress culture, does not seem worth it to me.
Which one is better?

Micron may be paying better with OT. I have friends in Micron with insanely high OT pay so they probably get twice of their base.
However, as you "jump ship", the next company might offer slightly higher than 3.4k offered in Micron because of anchoring bias. Hence, your 3.8k in ST might land you a better pay next job.
