【 以下文字转载自 WashingtonDC 讨论区 】 发信人: panym (new life begins), 信区: WashingtonDC 标 题: accept or not: $76,000 in a pharmaceutical company 发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Wed Feb 2 12:03:45 2011, 美东) LG is going to have an offer of $75,000/year (may have 10% end-year bonus with favorable evaluation) from a pharmaceutical company in MD area. The title is research scientist I. Have you ever seen an offer lower than this, even for a fresh PhD? LG get a PhD in chemistry in 2007. he once worked in a small pharmaceutical company in another state. Currently he is working in academia. The advantage of staying in the current position is he can learn the most advanced techniques, although he earned less than in industry. So we are struggling making a decision. If he stays in academia he will learn more things and may have better opportunity in future. If he accepts the offer he will earn more but he'll do similar things as he did in his previous industry position. He may not learn as much advanced skills as in the current position. The other point is, $75,000 is not a high salary. So guys, any suggestions if my LG should accept the offer? Thanks a lot!
We are in local, so we don't have to relocate. The current position is in School and is relative stable, and I will learn most advanced technologies, just the money is much lower that in industry. But in the long run, a couple of years later, I might make a good money, but just might!! The new opportunity will also touch some new stuff, but not that fancy. I am not sure if I should make money first when I have the chance or wait another couple of years to learn more stuff. But any how, there is always new technologies to learn at any time.

I think you can either look harder for a better job, or just take this one. Looking at the past, you have learned new technologies and fancy stuff. Did it get you a satisfactory job? If not, why waste more time? You may want to use excel to model your income over the next few years, and do some scenario analysis.

是够低了 不过如果是generic 的pharm话,这个年新也可以了 如果你lg将来想留在学术界,那么就不要动;如果将来还想去药厂,take this offer。工业经验比你所学的所谓新东西更有用啊。
