[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you consider moving from the private sector?[/quote] OP here, a few of my top reasons: Routine 70-hour workweeks. Constant fear of layoffs. Terrible coworkers. Lack of freedom to do anything creative. [/quote] In academia you will likely work far more than 70 hour weeks. As for layoffs and coworkers maybe you should just look at new opportunities? If you want better work hours maybe it is time to get out of research? Marketing or business development?[/quote]
