How about going to graduate school after graduating with a master's degree?

The job is relatively stable and generally average.

The salary is partly funded by the research team and partly by the research institute. It is slightly higher than ordinary workers in second-tier cities. Overall, it is quite stable and basically there will not be much change. In short, if you can't make money, you won't starve to death.

The year-end bonus is a bonus given by the research group’s horizontal projects. If the research group has no projects, there will be no year-end bonus. What's more, if you haven't received a project and the research team is in arrears, not only will there be no year-end bonus, but there will also be salary deductions.

Working atmosphere: Most of the people around are students, and each group has a recruitment limit, so the number of colleagues you often interact with may not exceed ten. In addition, groups are isolated and have basically no intersection.

Scope for promotion and salary increase: you are expected to be promoted to mid-level engineer after one year of work, and to senior engineer after five years.

The salary of mid-level engineers will increase by about 500 yuan, and the salary of senior engineers will be similar. Although you can be promoted, it still depends on hard conditions such as papers and patents. If the research group has too many trivial matters, it will be difficult to have time to publish papers and write patents. Moreover, after being promoted to intermediate or senior engineers, they still work in the team, and the work content does not change much.

In summary, entering a graduate school is equivalent to entering a micro-small company. The boss is the team leader, and the team leader leads several team members. The others are students who stayed for two years and then left. Apart from the title of a research institute, there are no other advantages to the outside world.
