If your current organization provides a good job security, I would suggest you to stay there for 6 more months and try.

If it's the opposite, you can try switching anyway. But do consider the pay, Job security etc. Considering the current market the budget for certain skills might have come down.

Nothing seems like that till now!

There is no good or bad time, it's your situation.
If you feel the current place is not were you want to be do plan to leave.

As long as you have an better a better place to work. Money at this stage will become secondary

Avoid startups that have history of layoffs..and before joining get idea about the project and the clients.. whether the client has stable business or not and for how long the client is associated with the company..is there is news in the market about client to revoke the contact

HI Fishes,
So I have just joined an MNC as a .Net+ AngularJS developer with 6YOE few weeks back and it seems they are putting me in a support role and the stack is based on VB whereas I come from C# background and also the frontend too is probably just old .net web forms.

It seems like I have been manipulated which isn't really unexpected but I am specifically worried about my future and growth prospects and how it will affect my profile due to the VB thing.
