Yes , true, I do have a great opportunity to learn here.

You are super underpaid, Learning is fine but you have to make your profile at par with market rate, otherwise the new company will ask old company compensation and try to lowball you.
So when you switch make sure you have 3-4 offers to make it worthwhile.
Else you'll remain underpaid for a quite sometime
