Why is this year so difficult? It’s even more difficult than during the pandemic. I’m 30 and facing unemployment. I’m so confused. [Copy link]

 

After graduating in 2015, I started working in a small company in a small city. I usually drew circuit boards and wrote microcontroller programs, and also took care of the processing.

There is no pressure at work and it is leisurely. The salary is quite good in the local area. I have lost my ambition and have not recharged myself.

The company's profits have not been good in the past few years, especially this year. It feels like it is not far from bankruptcy. I am suddenly confused.

The most commonly used microcontrollers are STM32F103 and Espressif's ESP32. I have only drawn single-layer and double-layer boards, and have never drawn more than two layers.

There are few jobs in this field in small cities. I looked at the job postings yesterday. There were not many companies hiring for this profession.

My hometown is here and I have bought this house. I don’t want to move to another city. I don’t know what to do.

The overall environment has not been good recently, and many companies are having a hard time. Hang in there.

If you start your own business or change your career, there should be more people involved in software development than microcontrollers.

Lower your requirements, find a job first and then look for another one. If the company is laying off employees, work hard to build a technical moat for yourself in normal times, and try not to let the company lay you off first when the performance is not good. But if the company collapses as a whole, there is really nothing you can do.

This year is indeed very difficult. Our year-end bonus has not been issued yet, and we don’t know if it will be issued.

The OP should try not to resign on his own initiative. Technical staff are not easily laid off during a recession. If you have less time, you can take on more work in the company, enrich yourself during this period, and look at other companies and opportunities.

The general environment is like this now. If you have a job, take it first. If it doesn't work out, you can also look for project development management. Even in small cities, there is still relatively little demand for development.

Hold on, enrich yourself

If you lose your job, just find another one. What's there to be confused about?

Although it is the Internet age, it is still very imperfect. We cannot receive a lot of information. There may be 200 companies in your area that need you, but you can only find a few companies when you search online. When will the Internet be able to classify and find out with a simple search? It will not be difficult to find a job or a partner.

Go to Shenzhen or Shanghai to make money, work for half a year, and come back to play for half a year.

Now it seems that the market situation this year is not good. It may not be the bottom, but just a part of the downhill road.

If it doesn't work, go to another city, at least you have to earn some money.

Doing a side job, these days nothing is more practical than making money,

The key is that there is no good side job in a small city.

At this time, I remembered what the experts said: rent out your idle house and use your idle private car to run Didi.

It's the same. The overall environment is bad. Many companies are laying off employees. Just treat unemployment normally.
