This is my first job as a programmer.I am working on ASP.NET/C#,HTML,CSS,Javascript/Jquery.

I am working for a firm which develops software for small banking firms.

Currently they have their software running in 100 firms.Their software is developed in Visual Fox Pro.

I was hired to develop online version of this software.I am the solo developer.

My boss is another developer.So my company has two developers.

My boss doesnot have any idea about .NET development.I am working on their project since 8 months.The progress is surely there but not very big.

I try my best to do what my boss asks.But the project just seems too ambitious for me.

The company doesnot have any planning for the project.They just ask me to develop what their older software provides.So I have to deal with front end , back end,review codes , design architecture and etc.

I have decided to give my best.I try a lot.But the project sometimes just seems to be overwhelming.

So my questions is , is it normal for a programmer to be in this place.

I always feel the need to work in atleast a small team if not big one.

Are my employers just expecting too much of a fresher.Or is that I being a programmer am lacking the skills to deal with this.

I am just not able judge my condition.Also I am paid very low salary.I do work on saturday as well.

Can anyone just help me judge this scenario?

Any suggestions are welcome.
