Job Security

soft money and lack of job security

Associate Professor, Postsecondary / Higher Education - (City withheld for privacy), New York, United States

My job is funded by research grant money. Since it is harder nowadays to obtain research funding I don't have a strong sense of job security. On the other hand I have a lot of control over my day to day work including when and where I work, which is probably the best part of the job. I would love to get a tenured position, but they are hard to come by.
