As a Frontend Dev in Pk, I'm giving ~50 hrs/week to my company & get a salary I can barely afford living with. I feel like I've fallen for some ridiculous scam where I am burning my eyes and life away & still barely surviving. I get 500 USD monthly and I'm hand to mouth.

I'm 1 year into the career, think a pretty good developer, but I don't know how to change this situation, my work won't allow time. I looked up foreign companies, but they require work permit. What do I do. Any opportunities?

Sounds like a job change of some type is in order…

USD$500 monthly? That is far too low. You are being exploited.

I have two job offers, one offers a salary of 61.5k and the other job offers an hourly rate of $27.65 with $41.48 for OT, as well as Sales Incentive Compensation Plan where the annual target incentive compensation is 42.86%. In other words, I could potentially receive quarterly bonuses that add up to around $24,650. However, that bonus isn’t guaranteed according to the offer letter and is contingent on my and my clients performance. Should I take the first job or second job?
