I work for a national government agency in France and as far as I know, they do not take any overhead off my grants. At least that's not something I include in my budgets... (And yes, that can include PhD students.)

So universities make research professors pay for their entire salary & research through grant funding, but then the university also takes a cut of your grant funding? Seems like youβd have to always apply for grants, so when do you do research? Is this why youβre all kinda grumpy
How do I avoid #burnout ?
By having managers. I always want to say yes to everything. But I need to discuss with my supervisors & that helps us all prioritize projects, grants, conferences, etc instead of trying to do Everything Everywhere All At Once

Always happy to chat or share my experience! Some of this is of course specific to @Anses_fr and π«π· but I think a lot of it applies to many #GovernmentJobs.
#AcademicChatter #AltAc #AltAcChat
I've said it before but if you don't want to stay in #academia, #industry is not your only option! There are really awesome jobs in #government, including #Research jobs, often in collaboration with universities, co-supervising students etc.

Learning a new R package is such an emotional rollercoaster. One minute you're in the depths of despair not understanding a thing and the next you're on top of the world when something finally works.

Huh maybe I'm not completely hopeless at #Rstats after all

Somehow it's still shocking how little time away from #coding it takes for me to go from quite proficient to absolute crap π«πͺπ

Make sure to treasure those moments that it turns out to be easier to fix your mess than you expected because they don't come around very often π

An excellent resource for folks on the job market: a list of #AltAc carer options, compiled by @FromPhDtoLife! #HigherEd #AltAcChat @AltAcChats
Lots of PhDs enjoy campus life, working with students, or being involved in academic research, but don't want to work as professors.
There are many possibilities π
I made you a list: https://t.co/1dP5P3E05w
Recently finished the trial period for my #NewJob @Anses_fr so I'm officially permanentπ
It was pretty straight-forward and no stress. I just did my work, made good progress on my projects, and got feedback from my supervisors and colleagues

Just when I was starting to feel a bit of mid-project slump, a meeting with my unit head got me re-energized! Now I'm excited to push ahead πͺ

Thank you #Government scientists who answered my poll and shared your experience last week ππ For only 22% of jobs a #PhD was not needed or advantageous. 24% required a PhD and a #postdoc was advantageous for 16% π
#AltAc #AltAcChat #PhDChat #PostdocChat #AcademicChatter
Hello again #Government Scientists! I'm curious, did you need a #PhD for your job? Is a #postdoc advantageous or waste of time?
For me, neither was absolutely required but the experience gave my application a big edge AND a salary bump. Share π
#AltAc #AltAcChat #AcademicChatter
For me #WorkLifeBalance means I not only really enjoy my weekends but after a couple days with friends and my #cat I am actually excited to come back to work on Monday advancing my projects. No more #MondayMorning dread.

Profs: Think critically, use evidence and data
#AltAc PhD's: Universities don't provide enough info on non-academic careers for #GradStudents & #postdocs. Let's share evidence and data on what's available outside #academia.
Profs: No, not like that.
#AcademicChatter #AltAcChat
alt-ac: PhDs teach you critical thinking
also we never researched this obscure figure called "salary"
