Compound Vs Isolation

Cant compare apples to oranges. Both have different purposes. Compounds for overall strength and fitness. Isolations for targeting specific muscles. Youll be fine doing compounds only though but will not maximize muscle growth. Doing only isolations is a waste of gym membership.

But how do you get good in squats?? Tips??

Honestly? Just keep training and you'll slowly get stronger as you go along. Some technique tips would be to make sure you keep the bar really tightly secured against your grip and your traps (don't use the neck foam thing, it fucks up your stabilizer muscle activation and makes you hunch which may lead to upper spine problems, just seriously look up a video on how to set up a barbell squat), find a comfortable foot position where you can squat down to where your butt can touch the back of your ankles and go light at first to get your technique dialed in, feel that deep stretch in your quads, go all the way down to the bottom and find a weight that challenges you to 10 or 12 reps and just keep training. That's it, there's no secret cue, it's just consistency and repetition.

Does anyone have a workout plan for 3 days / week workout 2hrs each?

Have an upper push day, upper pull day, & a lower day.

Exercise selection will depend on equipment availability (among others), so you will have to fill this in yourself according to the training day.

~3 exercises per training day, do more/less according to time and/or energy availability.

3 near failure sets per exercise. Rep targets will depend on exercise selection, so again, you will have to fill this in yourself accordingly.

That's as much I can spoonfeed you with the limited details that you provided. And this is me assuming your goal is hypertrophy/physique development. Alternatively, you might want to learn how to write your own training plan with this guide: https://rippedbody.com/how-to-build-training-programs/
