[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP- what do you mean by science admin? Is that managing grants as a program officer or something else? I’m a 2015 PhD grad and currently looking for a job after post-doc. CROs really scare me for the reasons PP mentioned but I’ve only worked in government and academia so I have no direct experience. But people I know who have worked With them are very well skilled and report decent work balance so it probably depends on the CRO.[/quote] PP here - yes I manage grants and centers like a program official (I’m not a NIH - but my federal agency follows a similar process). I chose this route because I didn’t want to be stressed about funding, I have small kids so work life balance is super important, also I got GS-14 which pays more the academic positions I considered. Sometimes I wonder if I made the right decision though....I’m still getting used to not doing my own research [/quote]
