    I started my first programming job a year ago. It is only for a small company in India for pretty low pay. But the thing that bothers me the most is the code quality is abysmal and I am somehow surrounded by people worse than me so I am not learning much.

      i feel this way about my own code. read the standard libraries, open source codebases, and other examples of production level code and improve your own. this will likely prompt a raise/promotion if it impacts performance and cuts costs. good luck :)
