Good on them! It's getting harder and harder to make it in academia so unless you come from an established research group and have connections plus some luck publishing high impact (which is bullshit, but unfortunately a metric still), it will be tough to keep going. Oh, and forget about family planning unless you want extra stress. Sucks to be you if you happen to be a woman as well.

Glad to see people realise you don't have to stay but you can get jobs outside of academia.
