Currently working in Japan as a developer, this being my first real job, I am clueless as of how am I doing compared to others in life since I don't have a lot of friends (I'm not lonely just never been a lot of friends person).
Currently I work as a developer in IT, in the suburbs of Shizuoka, it's a very boring city tbh but I get to enjoy going to Yokohama on the weekends, my company is very white, only around of 10 hours of overtime a month and can use my vacations whenever I want without excuses, I get paid around 310,000円 after taxes including the 10h of overtime before mentioned, I also get to work from home 4 days a week, important to say that there is NO bonus at all! so I only keep what I earn at the end of the month.
Recently I've gotten tired of living in the suburbs and was thinking of moving to Shizuoka but my company said it is not possible, so I was thinking of changing jobs but I am not sure how good (or bad) I have it now and really don't want to regret it just because I wanted to live in a more urbanized area.
Is my payment good for IT ? Is it low? Is it average? Is it common for most other IT companies to offer the same white environment/remote work with more salary ? Or do I have it good now and I just don't know it?
It bugs me a little but that I don't get any bonuses but idk if other IT companies (especially foreign ones) do
