Mastering a job skill may not always be key to success. This job may wipe out soon. You will then end up staring a new job profile sometimes with a lower salary than current one. In some cases afresh.
A job that gives you an opportunity to learn and acquire new skills play very important role in these changing times. Skills that you have learned are like cash in the bank.
When taking your careers decisions you have to also see pros and cons of a job which let you acquire less skills or runs on skills already acquired vs a job which gives you an apportunity to constantly learning new skills.
If your existing company is not paying you what you feel you deserve, take above also into account when making salary comparison. Additional skills are like cash, which you can encash in a new company anytime. However, if in new company, you do not acquire new skills, the salary jump that you get there may not sustain you for very long time.
