Advice needed

I’m a 2022 grad, hit by onboarding delay for 8 months after graduation (during those time I grinded leetcode approx ~400 questions, learnt spring boot ) Recently I joined one of the WITCH companies which I was offered in 2021. I was trained in Java but now they put me into Mainframe project dealing with COBOL programming and DB2 and I’ve never felt this underconfident and worthless in life. I’m planning for MS in CS in 2024. Does this work experience help in anyway? Is a switch needed before I apply to masters? I would really appreciate if anyone could suggest me what to do.

Cobol in mainframe is kinda rare and you can get a decent package to be honest.

There is no point switching at this moment when you have decided to move out already in 2024. Keep in touch with coding on your own. Just keep doing bare minimum whats required in office to sustain the job till then.
