A common tale since the advent of biotech and quant finance. This is more or less my story, as well.
Comment on Publisher Wants $2,500 To Allow Academics To Post Their Own Manuscript To Their Own Repository
Zeth0s@lemmy.world 1 year agoI used to work in academia in a field where salaries in financial and tech industries are pretty good. The best people left. Most who stayed were average at best with great egos. Only 1 person deserved to stay and he is now living in a shithole city, with a salary that is 1/3rd of mine as lecturer.
It is a broken system
