"It really depends on what department you work for but in the case of my particular position and department, I do more teaching than those above me and due to some new hires I also know more than them. Add that to the fact that in order to move up I need more years of experience, it's just not a good long term position. I will say though, that the flexibility and ability to do work on the side is something that will not be found with any other job."
