Tough call! Money is irrelevant unless one has made commitments and should honor them. In the case there is nothing left to learn then I would look to add value by creating something that doesn't exist yet within my area of work; or I would try to transfer to another department where I could contribute and learn new things. At the end if I am convince there is nothing else to do then maybe moving out would be the best thing for both the employer and myself.

In my opinion, experience is only gained in the first year of the job after that it's all repetition. And if with these skill set you are able to gain this much as a salary as it is satisfying to you, with learning more can fetch you more! yes, it does take time, dedication, consistency and risk-taking. But if you are determined and want to grow so bad, you'll succeed.

If you have opportunity top up your knowledge with professional training courses, it may also benefit you and your company as well. If you are doing only a routine work, having no other possiblity to enhance your knowledge to the updated level, you should look around for relevant but progressive opportunity.

Depends on which level of career you reached .

mostly gaining new experiences in my field is required  to be kept up to date so generally its better to leave . 

Man can learn a lot from 5 year experience but beside he should continue professional Developement(CPD).If he found a better job in which he can get more experience he should that join even his salary is less then before.Thank you!

There is no perfect age for learning and experience.That's why I Would like to stay for better result .

I think that after five years in a job, an employee must obligatory acquire a certain experience.

If he/she did not learn anything during these five years, it was because he/she was not motivated, he contented himself with the presence in the workplace and the cashing his salary at the end of each month.

Frankly speaking , my first answer will be "YES"  but also i can make something different from the traditional environment and to create something new from where i can gain new experience with applying new strategy.

Answer to this question is that in every job there is a saturation point where you will no longer be able to induce your more time. At this stage more time induction means loss of your growing years. You have to take decision at this stage otherwise time will come when passion to change will fade out and then you will only think of retaining a position rather than changing your position.

L E A V E is my option.
