need advice on whether to change job or continue sticking
i graduated this year with a computer science degree 2nd upper. currently working for this oracle subsidiary company with a poor salary of $3.4k for 5 months. i heard from my colleagues that they haven't been getting any bonus for the past 2 years. this company also do not have AWS. seeing many of my friends got 4k+ or even 3.5 to 4k range makes me wanna jump ship.
should i stay for more experience or get out as soon as possible? is going into public sector like dsta a good choice?
thanks everyone

I doubt you will get 4k with just 5 months exp. Also with the slow economy, many companies are not paying bonus.
If you want to get 3.5k with 'guarantee' bonus then go for civil service or stat board.

if u jump now, another company HR will confirm ask u why change job less than a year?

Your next employer will ask you why did you leave after 5 months. High pay for grads are not the majority. No point comparing with people.

nobody is goin to label u as job hopper or be bothered by your 5 month stint. As most they may ask as passing remark.
u r still a fresh grad. there's nothing wrong for you to explore around to find your fit.
And I don't understand why the 'older' generation here is so eager to settle for mediocrity. Go fight for what you are worth. Don't settle for some low pay and find some lame excuse like 'i dont have exp' to justify your low pay. Otherwise you will end up like those 'older' generation who come here and tell the next 'strawberry' generation they cannot do this cannot do that bcos you failed to achieve anything urself.

I guarantee you that the FIRST thing all interviewers will ask is why leave after only 5 months. It isn't going to ignored as a passing remark.
Not to say the TS cannot interview for other jobs, but you say until like nobody will care at all is just setting up TS to be unprepared and bomb the interview.
