The time to market difference is huge in regular software than research. Also, the risks of failure are very high. So incomes are cut, except with blockbusters where the rewards flow to the top.
One reason I am glad I got out of biotech.
- cryoshon 11y agoI'm in biotech now, thinking of leaving due to generally poor pay conditions in the industry. Have any other reasons to share?
- IndianAstronaut 11y agoI flat out had a tough time finding a job in biotech. I landed one and the pay was 30% less than what a regular tech company was offering. I still want to be in science, but now it is a hobby rather than my sole source of income.
- cryoshon 11y agoAh, I also had a hard time finding a job in biotech, despite having some solid referrals and awful offers. Settled for a mediocre offer as a result. Anyways, thanks for sharing.
