is this tech job normal?
hi,
im currently a junior dev at a large tech company. pay sucks ( 4.2k ), no stocks, remote job.
previously i interned here back when i was in NTU comp science ( grad 2021 ) and the work was fun, i got to learn a lot of things and go to the office to meet teammates.
when they offered me a full-time conversion, i enjoyed my work so i took it... but when i came back as a fulltime, i found out im in a different team and cannot change... im isolated from this team, whatever task they doing im not involved. i dont know why... i asked to be involved and they just tell me to wait for new tasks but it never comes.
i work here for almost 6 months already and still no work to do. is this normal? i know im new so need onboard all those but for 6 months ?
should i just leave and find a new job? anyone else faced this issue?

Talk to your direct manager, otherwise quit. Don’t waste another 6 months.
