Just had my renegotiation for my salary, and I’m not satisfied with the results. I’m looking for a better work situation, but at the same time I’ve only been here for just over a year. Should I tough out another year? Or would there be any shot at applying for a job?

Also a software engineer with a strong background in SQL, so if you know any positions w/ data analysis lmk!!

Start applying now, there’s no harm. Especially if you don’t have a history of job hopping. It took me 17 months to land a new role.

It sounds like you're in a challenging situation. Balancing job satisfaction and career progression can be tough, especially when you're feeling undervalued. Here are a few points to consider:

1. **Assess the Job Market:** Research the job market in your field. If there are plenty of opportunities and your skills are in demand, it might be worth applying elsewhere sooner rather than later.

2. **Evaluate Your Current Role:** Consider what you like and dislike about your current job. Are there opportunities for growth or skill development that could benefit you in the long run?

3. **Talk to Your Employer:** Sometimes employers are open to renegotiating terms if they understand your value and dissatisfaction. It might be worth having another conversation with them.

4. **Network:** Reach out to industry contacts and attend networking events. This can open up new opportunities and provide insight into potential job openings.

5. **Plan for the Long-Term:** Think about your career goals. If staying another year will significantly benefit your resume or skill set, it might be worth toughing it out. However, if you're feeling stagnant and undervalued, seeking a new job sooner could be the better option.

Ultimately, it's important to prioritize your own career happiness and growth. Don't feel pressured to stay if it means compromising your satisfaction and potential. You don't want to end up like me, toughing it out year after year without making a change. If you decide to look for new opportunities, do so discreetly and continue to perform well in your current role until you find a better fit.

I agree with all of these points. You can try applying to a new job but I will at that i think everyone needs to re-adjust salary expectations. The demand has shifted and it’s so to say an ‘employers market’ there are hundreds of not thousands of applicants in the market now. And low interest rates are gone and companies are more conservative with cash.

Feel free to look if we have any positions that fit your experience level. If you see something message me and we can get in a referral for you.

Good luck!
